My normal right eye long distance prescription is 1 diopters. Is that MINUS or PLUS ? Do you add or subtract -0.5 to that number to get the correct lens for the camera to come out right? Do we have an optician and or opthamologists better yet, 2 opticians etc. in the house that can double check the results of this statement to add or subtract ? Lastly, who has a used M6 correction lens for sale? Something you tried but it did not work or worse yet, you "outgrew"? Or a swap meet.. my outgrown useless diopter for yours, 1:1, no cash, no shipping. My useless for your useless. I would also happily swap Hasselblad lenses for Leica M6 lenses. Jim Brick? Austin Franklin? You are both Hassy users as well as M6 users, others? Frank Filippone red735i@earthlink.net It is in the M6 "Technical Data" at the back of the current manual; according to the manual, the standard eyepiece is set to -0.5 diopters.
