Even with contacts this is still a problem for me in the strong Australian sun.
Using one hand to cover the eyepiece is a technique I sometimes use (this is not ideal). The towel over the head would be a good idea, although you may find yourself in the local lockup :eek:
The other method is to get a "rough" reading using the top LED and then use preview to check the histogram.
I have noticed that the contents of the viewfinder become brighter / darker depending on the strength of the light. Unfortunately though, not bright enough.
I have seen a couple of posts showing an attachment to put on the eyepiece and was wondering if that would help.
Regards
Bob

I joined this forum just to get into this discussion :D
I noticed "problem" this just after buying my K10 and after many tests have come to the conclusion that this occurs when the camera reaches the lower end of it's metering capabilities (I should point out that this conclusion may not be correct). If I'm right, it sort of defeats the object of having this facility.
Open to suggestions.........
