Hello Ken.
Do you use anything on your iS-3 as well, such as the Variable Dioptric Adapter
A 0 ~ -2
perhaps? I mean, does it matter so much on an AF camera? My nearsight is
seemingly getting
slightly worse by the day now (approaching my fiftieth birthday), but I haven't
experienced any difficulties so far with the viewfinder in my iS-3000. I can
still read
the computer screen from a half meter (but not much closer), but for all other
reading I
need glasses. TIA for any advice.
