OK, My last handheld 4x5 is a very old speed graphic with the old glass sight viewfinder (see fuzzy photo... sorry, large crop). Now, when I hold the camera about a foot from my eye, the image in the glass is in focus. If I hold the camera right up against my face, and I sight through the finder, the image is very 'out of focus'. My question is, were these finders designed to be held at a distace from the eye. or could this finder be 'corrected' for a long-gone photographer's eyesight? Against my face, the old rapid rectilinear is just what's one the ground glass, but held away, it's cropped a bit. I would love to have your opinions on this. Thank You!..Robbie
