I absolutely love the viewfinder in the X100, and 99% of the time, use it on OVF.
The problem I have is this: I am extremely shortsighted in my left eye, and, unfortunately, I am also "left-eyed" when it comes to using a VF. This has never been a problem with other cameras, but for some godforsaken reason Fuji decided that although the diopter adjuster would go to -3, it would only go to +1.5. Even with my right eye (not easy to switch to different eye, let me tell you!) which is not quite as bad as the left, I'm having issues. That is, I am having to rely entirely on AF and audible beeps to tell me if I am focussed. And sometimes it doesn't work out. Well, often, really
I seem to recall that someone else was discussing this in another thread, some time ago, but I can't find the thread and I can't remember who it was.
Does anyone recall if there was a solution to this problem?
