should I wear contacts or eyeglasses while I am taking picture to get images in focus on the film with a through-the-the lens manual focusing camera. Or does it matter at all?

Yes, the myopia makes a difference. You have 2 choices:

1) Wear your corrective lenses. You can buy eyepiece extenders for many cameras to make it easier.


2) Make use of the diopter adjustment. Many cameras have a built-in adjuster wheel near the viewfinder.

If you need stronger correction, some manufacturers (e.g. Canon), offer Dioptric Adjustment Lenses that fit over the eyepiece of your camera.

Good Luck

If you focus through the eyepiece the best focus you can see (with or without glasses) is the best focus you can get. It is impossible for the image in the eyepiece to appear in focus and really be out of focus because you don't have glasses on.

Use your glasses or contacts. The main drawback with glasses is they might place your eye a little farther from the viewfinder, and you may not be able to see the whole field of view.

It can matter, that's one reason I went to autofocus a few years ago, because my visual acuity ain't what it used to be!

it does matter...which is annoying; with your glasses it gets in the way, without them you don't know whether it's in focus or not..
contacts may be the best bet!
glasses are annoying me endlessly when i take photos at gigs.....since i can't change to contacts (too many problems with my eyes to get a set pair)
