I recently had cataract surgery, and now I can see distances without glasses. Do the fuji cameras have a way to compensate for the blurry viewfinder? I was looking through the viewfinder of a Fujifilm 4250 the other day and it appeared to be out of...

I have had the S4500 for just a few weeks. I wear tri-focals and lve. them on while shooting. I just did some testing and here's what I found: With my glasses on, I focused on an object (auto) The Image looked sharp in the viewer, and in "reviewing". I then lined-up another shot - without my glasses, moved the shutter button half-way down - object was blurred but I took the shot anyway. Reviewed it (on the camera back) and it was fine. Conclusion (after two more tests) the camera was focusing correctly regardless of what I was seeing ! Highly recommend you do same testing to confirm. Having checked other review, I agree this model does NOT have a Diopter (previous Fuji model I owned did) but I am already used to this system - but then I'm not a pro! Oh, don't forget when shooting picture of two people, always point the focus-beam at ONE of the faces then "re-frame" while holding shutter btn. half way down. (sorry if I,m stating the obvious!). Good luck. Harry Hilton

I'm not a professional photographer and haven't read any reviews about quality of viewfinder or LCD. I have had no problems with either in using my Sony. A friend who is a pro recommended it to me and I'm perfectly happy with the pics I've taken. shannon s, TX

Would really like to help with your question but, unfortunately, I didn't save the box or the instruction sheet. I can tell you however that these binoc's are great. I've used them on trips to Alaska and to China. I find very little "shake" or distortion at higher magnification compared with others that I looked at from the "brick and mortar" stores. If you purchase them I hope you are as satisfied with the product as I am.

Not in the camera body. The zoom lenses provided by Fuji have image stabilization, prime lenses do not.

There is a manual focus adjustment on the side next to the view finder. If you don't use it to set viewfinder focus, it's usually blurry. This feature is also identified in your camera's manual. Hope this helps!

G1x has an optical viewfinder if it's ever needed. Lens is 4X zoom which I find adequate. This lower zoom ratio is due to the large image sensor and the desire to keep the lens short. The Large image sensor works very well in low light conditions is a good trade off. At ISO 16000 an 8 second exposure of landscape illuminated by full moonlight has very little grain.

There is a dial, just to the left of the viewfinder that will adjust the sharpness in the viewfinder. You can adjust it to your eye. Reminder, the setting will be different between your naked eye and glasses/contact lenses [if you wear them]. Hope this helps.

My experience with a Fisheye add on on lens was very poor. I returned it. I have a different model Fuji the HS20 that also has a fixed lens. It seems the problem is that the computer in the camera is programed to the work with that lens and adding either the fisheye or doubler lens confused the computer. My images we soft and fuzzy, nothing like the clear crisp shots I'm used to getting. Bright colors were also negatively effected, they were dull and muddy. Ciao.

I looked at a ton of options, and at the end of the day I tried the Fuji and have been very happy with it's performance. The only thing that has been a bother is the fact that when you zoom, the speed of the camera is reduced, so when fully zoomed your F-stop if somewhere around 5.6... Other than that, the picture quality, clarity, and performance has been great! And in terms of size, I've carried this all over in my pocket hardly noticing it was there! Defintely a great deal overall! - Hope this helps! - Jeff

I had that problem, the aperture problem which resulted in overexposure. Called Fujifilm, sent the camera, and it fixed and came back. I paid the shipping cost to their service center but service was quick and replacement itself was free. I had that problem with quite early lot, but I guess current lot does not have such problem or if you have then you can get the replacement service.

This has no adjustment for that, other than the focus. I've used it with and without glasses, and it's pretty much the same. You'll probably want to use this without glasses, because unless you have your eye pressed to the lense, this is useless at 40x.

If you pull out the viewfinder you'll find a small dial. That's the diopter adjustment. It's great when you go from glasses to no glasses. Before you set it make sure you've actually had the camera properly focused on something first.

How do I use the viewfinder on the FZ4o? It is black and I can't see any images through it. Is there a setting that I must put the camera in to use this function in addition to the LCD monitor?

I don't think that Fuji made multiple versions of this lens. Just multiple versions of the firmware.

My camera wasn't grey market. It was Nikon USA. Still having troubles with viewfinder focus. Camera is being repaired for the 3rd time. I have a feeling it still won't work properly.

I did not observe the same. Although i remember reading about people complaints that magnetic field of the frame is too strong and it affects focusing. Frankly I have not been using it much because if you need to keep you camera in a case it is very inconvenient to remove and attach the Viewfinder every now and then.

My D40 developed a blurry line in the middle of the viewfinder after about 2 months (or maybe it just took me 2 months to notice it). It doesn't affect the photos, just the viewfinder, but it is a little annoying at times. I'm guessing it's a warp or something like that in the focusing screen. Since I take most of my photos in the Summer and Fall, I don't want to part with it for another couple of months, but after that I plan on sending it in to Nikon to have them check it out while it's still under warranty. It really hasn't been a big deal, and the camera is great in spite of it, but I would like to make sure it's not going to get worse.
