I'm beginning to realize the difficulty of precise focusing in a KX, especially when using red filters...

Do you need diopter adjustment for the viewfinder?

Hi. Haven't posted here for a while as I've been very busy with new digital work. This is from the fairly distant past- a Garry Oak tree shot in 1988. Given the date, it was probably shot with an M 28mm.

I'm not certain if that will help, Steve. The viewfinder seems correctly focused IMHO. The speed indicator seems in focus and without a red filter, I can distinctly see the change in the microprisms when a subject is in focus. I believe its just my eyesight

A red filter makes it difficult for me to discern the focus through microprism, I guess.

Beautiful. Is this on the upper Mackenzie?

Thanks, Steve. The Mackenzie flows out of Clear Lake, and flows over three fall in the first mile or so. This is Koosah Fall the second fall.

It didn't come out too bad, I assume.

Very nice photo, humor with something else. Well done, with a great kit, too. But you saw it and there it is, whatever the gear.
