womble	Posted - Dec 25 2010 : 5:03:34 PM I am new to range finders and FEDs so I hope this isn't a silly question. I was given a lovely FED2 this morning. Everything was fine, I loaded the film and went out and took some photos. When I came back in I just left the camera on the side. When I next picked the camera up everything is utterly out of focus in the viewfinder. I was wondering if it might be condensation (it was cold outside and hot inside) but it doesn't really look like that and it isn't clearing. I am pretty sure I didn't knock the camera and so I am a bit puzzled. Does anyone have any ideas as to what might be the problem? Best wishes, Kris.

womble	Posted - Dec 26 2010 : 07:40:08 AM Hi Jean, you are absolutely right! :oops: I wondered what that lever was for. One of the issues of having a camera without a manual. Many thanks indeed. Now to finish off the test roll. :D Best wishes, Kris.
jed	Posted - Dec 26 2010 : 02:12:58 AM Hello Kris, Check the diopter adjustment lever (under the rewind knob). I bet it's in a wrong position ;) All the best, Jean
