>>4480513So my 500N arrived and I've got it loaded with some Kentmere 400. I'm keen to go out and shoot but before I do, I want to make sure this isn't a dud.
The viewfinder is blurry despite my lenses being fine and the AF system working properly. Even going MF I can never quite get a sharp picture. The camera doesn't look damaged (or even used, really) so I'm guessing it's the lack of diopter?
I wear glasses and my DSLR has a built in diopter that I basically always have cranked to -1. If I set the DSLR to 0 it's blurry.
Obviously this means I just need to buy a -1 diopter attatchment right? Like, what are the odds the mirror box is out of whack or whatever?
I only ask since I used to have another EOS SLR years ago (that I never really used and sold) but it didn't have a diopter lens and no internal adjustment but was perfectly sharp to look through.
It looks like if I peer through the edge of the viewfinder instead of the center the image gets sharper.
