Can't stand'em, myself. I rely heavily on my peripheral vision, and "progressive" lenses give the effect of looking through a little porthole. I've got one pair of glasses without any extra magnification at all to correct astigmatism & mild myopia, just for use with the OVF - glass lenses, not plastic, because of the difference in the refractive index. And for general use, a separate pair of bi-focals. Only problem with bi-focals is that you have to crane your neck looking down to see where your feet are when you're on steps, rocks, etc. - of course that's not a problem with my special photography glasses.

This is why I laugh when I see "SLRs are dead and the future is mirrorless" posts.

The universe has a wicked sense of humour.
