I feel funny asking this since I don't see anyone else having the problem. I have trouble using the small image produced by the viewfinder on the D80 to manual focus on a select object. I've tried out other brands & models and they seem to be the same for me.
I have the viewfinder adjusted correctly but if I have a shallow DOF, the viewfinder image is too small for me to tell if it is focused really sharp the way I want it. I wear contacts instead of glasses. I can get it close but not tack sharp.
I use the AF which can get it close most of the time but I feel I could do a better job manually if I could just see a bigger better view of the subject.
I've seen some of the magnifying pieces you can put over the viewfinder but not sure how well they work or if it would solve my issue.
Hope I'm making sense. Anyone else have this issue?
