Have had an issue when using a camera, I can't make up my mind to adjust the camera diopter to work without the glasses, but then I can't read the on camera info.
Never had that problem. Camera diopter doesn't have enough magnification (or whatever it does) to handle my uncorrected eyesight. I've been wearing glasses since I was 12. No chance for contacts, my blink reflex is so bad I could never put them in. I've been wearing bifocals since my early 50s & went to progressives right away because I couldn't handle stairs with the kind that have the line in the middle. NOT a candidate for laser surgery. Doctor says I have too much astigmatism. But they told me that if I ever have to have cataract surgery, they might be able to fit me with a lens that corrects my distant vision & then I'll only need reading glasses for close up work. Hoodman offered a pair of "Photoframes" that flipped the glass part up out of the way while your eye was against the viewfinder, but it doesn't look like they make/sell them any longer. http://petapixel.com/2010/02/24/pma2010glasses-for-photographers/ It's a shame. I looked at them one time, but they were VERY expensive ($500 frames) & you still had to pay your eye doctor to make the lenses to fit them. Plus, when I asked about getting cable temples, I was told they were not available. Searching for them now, the old reviews show them with cable temples. What a bummer. -- Science - Questions we may never find answers for.
