The range is from +1 to -3 diopters so it would seem that 0 correction
is near one end of the range. Your problem may be that you're not
setting it correctly. To make the adjustment remove the lens or aim the
out-of-focus camera at a blank surface. Pull the adjustment knob out.
Rotate it back and forth until the circles around the focusing aids
(micro prism, split image, etc) on your focusing screen are in sharp
focus. Then push the know back in.

I've got an OM-4 and no manual. I want to reset the diopter to 0. In a

magnification,
but I can seem to find "the best" setting for me tired eyes. I would be
happy if I new that this camera was set up the same as my other
bodies--i.e., with no compensation.
Any advice would be appreciated.
