I have had my Canon 350D for a couple of years - I have a problem with focus.

When looking through the viewfinder the image is blurry and out of focus, regardless of which mode I’m in or which lens I use . However the photos are coming out in focus and perfectly sharp.

Taking photos is now obviously a nightmare as I can’t see what I’m doing.

Has anyone heard of this problem before?

Many thanks, Streeto.

I think what your problem might be is that the diopter got adjusted in the wrong direction. On the Rebel XT there is a little scroll wheel that is oriented vertically right next to the viewfinder. Try looking through your viewfinder and moving the diopter one way or the other until it appears to be in focus for you.
