Maybe it has to do with lens speed? A F1.4 lens is going to have a much
brighter image than a F4 lens, so the brighter image of a faster lens might
be what is washing it out? I'll have to try the ZX-M and my 50mm F1.4 lens
on a bright day.

I have both MZ-M and MZ-5n and the problem is the
same.
Actually, I think that it is a fact. All MZ/ZX camera
reviews point out this as a weak point:
'meter readings difficult to see in bright light'

What lens are you experiencing with? I guess fast lens
would bright up the viewfinder causing the problem in
bright sunny days. What if you use the DOF preview to
step down the lens and read the information?

You haven't? You must have some special ZX-M then. I have the "M" (and I
like it too), but on a bright sunny day my viewfinder's LEDs all but
disappear...

Trade it for another LX.

I have never had this problem with the ZX-M. I don't know why the ZX-5n is
different.

Same thing with the ZX-M. Viewfinder LED's just disappear in bright light.
Damn dumb engineering is right!

I have the same problem I think it is just dumb engineering
What I do, sometimes, is press ML button and put my hand in front
of the lens, than I can see the LCD in the viewfinder (it is also
a dumb solution, but...)

Is it just my eyes, or do other people find that it's almost impossible to
see the LEDs in the viewfinder of a ZX-5n when shooting outdoors in bright
light? Most of the time I end up guessing what it says. Do I need a black
cloth over my head like a view-camera photographer? Or are my batteries
