Hi Guys,
I have the T2i and I just bought and arrive today the new loop LCDVF 3:2,very beatifull and useful...but the problem is that I am farsighted and there is not any kind of possibility to change the parameters, so what I see is out of Focus!!!I also put a pair of glass that I use when I read but is still out of focus. So, what Can I do to use it, if I can use it? Thanks Gianni |

Re: Please suggest me what I can do
I had to return mine for the same reason. I ended up getting a Genus which worked for my eyes.

Re: Please suggest me what I can do
There's a guy that made a video on how to add a dioper to the LCDVF... without any "major surgery." Forget if it's on Vimeo or YouTube. I think he uses close-up lenses, based upon his reading glasses strength.

Re: Please suggest me what I can do
You could always take the glass out... I bought mine mainly to use in bright sunlight. The magnification glass was just a bonus, but not essential IMO.

Re: Please suggest me what I can do
Best solution for me was the Hoodman Cinema Pro Kit, adjustable diopter, 3x eyepiece, on and off in seconds and adjusts to other cameras quickly.
I avoided it for a long time because it looked "klunky" to me, but once I started using it I found it to be the most convenient and fast solution. I "swap it around" between a T2i, 7D, and now 60D. |

Re: Please suggest me what I can do
Steve are you sure that the glass it's only an optional?
I don belive about it due that is not a simple glass but you have the magnify with it! |

Re: Please suggest me what I can do
I found with mine that it worked when I put on my off the shelf reading glasses. So I took an old pair popped out one of the lenses and placed inside the loupe. I used super glue which unfortunately fogged the lens up a little. So be careful.

Re: Please suggest me what I can do
Thanks Donald,
I made the same things with the same problem but it works great!! Strange that we have to pay a lot of money for the Loop and we have to change the diopters. |

Re: Please suggest me what I can do
This one makes it easier, and protects the screen, simply stick the mount to it, and slide it on whenever needed.
