[QUOTE="DraganDL, post: 324780, member: 18251"] Dunno about you, but I wear glasses with the diopter -1.5 (minus, or negative one and a half) for more than a 30 years now. But I always take them off when shooting. I set my viewfinders (D5100 and D7000) to the position where I get the clearest possible picture (without my glasses being put on) by turning those adjustment knobs, and that's all. It's either you USE your glasses (and set that knob into neutral position) or you look through the viewfinder WITHOUT your glasses, and adjust the viewfinder's diopter until you reach your personal optimum at ANY distance. Conclusion: you don't need any prescriptions here - simply look through the viewfinder, point your camera at any suitable object (positioned at the distance you believe is your preferable), manually focus until you realize it cannot get any sharper, and turn that knob around until you find your own "sweet spot".
