New to A1—Viewfinder: Is something off, or am I missing something?
 
I just got my A1 this afternoon, and am exploring it.

When I look through the viewfinder with my eye right up on it, everything is blurry, and I do not see a clear, sharp image. All of the lettering is blurry. Trying to see the focus as I can on the LCD is impossible.


Ah, never mind — I found the Dioptic adjustment.

RTFM!

I was about to tell you to get glasses for the viewfinder and remove your glasses for the LCD, just to teach newby a lesson to rtfm first (-: but you already figured it out. Darn. (-:

Yeah, I've definitely had my newbie moment... okay, now on to better things. :–)
