A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

How to prevent smudging glasses with viewfinder (alien.top)

Those of you with glasses how do you avoid smudging them with your viewfinder. I'm virtually useless without my glasses (nearsighted) and every time I'm shooting I end up with smudges all over my glasses from my viewfinder. My viewfinder in clean too just seems to be the type of rubber or something that does it. I've just accepted it at this point but I'm wondering if anyone else has this problem or has any tips to avoid it?

Encountered same issue. However during shooting I did not recognize it really. Glasses are ‘dirty’ but I still could see OK.

However just recently bought contact lenses and it is a lot better.

Yeah it just tends to annoy me when I'm not shooting, especially If I'm out and about and don't have a lens cloth with me
