Hi there. I'm hoping someone may be able to help me here.

I have an EOS 650D, which was purchased with the standard 18-55mm lens, and have been using it for a couple years with no issue only on auto focus. But today when I looked through the hole to see the subject the lens would not focus but it allowed me to take the picture, it came out perfectly but it just doesn't show it when I look through the hole, if I switch it to the monster view it works fine just not through the hole, I've tried cleaning it, cleaning the lens, cleaning the sensors but to no solution.

What at could be causing this and what can I do to fix it?

Adjust your diopter setting.

+1. It's the little wheel next to "the hole" (viewfinder). p. 42 of the instruction manual.
