Well, this is curious. I’ve hired an X-Pro3 for a few days and when it arrived, I seemed to find the same issue: two clicks between OVF and EVF sharpness. I keep going back to it to figure out whether I’m just going mad. Sometimes it seems I can bring the two together adequately for objects at a distance, sometimes it seems I can’t find that balance. Glasses on or glasses off.

But then I found this:

“when switching from OVF to EVF I had to adjust the diopter two stops to avoid a blurry image in the viewfinder. This is certainly not the case with my X-Pro2. I am not sure if this is a common or a known issue?”—https://www.5050travelog.com/camera-and-lens-reviews/fujifilm-xpro3-camera-review

So at least it seems I may not be going mad… (or if I am then I’m not alone)

I’m going round in circles deciding whether to settle on an X100V, X-Pro3 or X-Pro2, and this really isn’t helping 🙂
