I find that the OVF is perfect for my right eye - which is, at the moment - 
correctionless for distance, but the EVF is fuzzy. I think what they need is 
an add-on adjustable dioxide.

I think it is just a matter of getting used to its quirkiness. The main 
thing I find is that the viewfinder image after shooting (i.e. the EVF 
image) does not appear sharp but I think that is my failing eyesight. I 
would fit an eyesight correction lens (assuming I could find one) but I 
don't know how that would then work with the optical viewfinder - would that 
be out of focus to me? However, the more I use the camera the more I love it!
