Focus the viewfinder.

Rotate the diopter adjustment control until the
viewfinder display and focus point are in sharp
focus. When operating the control with your eye
to the viewfinder, be careful not to put your
fingers or fingernails in your eye.

Adjusting Viewfinder Focus

If you are unable to focus the viewfinder as described above, select single-servo autofocus
(AF-S;

0 32), single-point AF (c; 0 34), and the center focus point, and then frame a high-

contrast subject in the center focus point and press the shutter-release button halfway to
focus the camera. With the camera in focus, use the diopter adjustment control to bring the
subject into clear focus in the viewfinder. If necessary, viewfinder focus can be further
adjusted using optional corrective lenses.
