I wear glasses, so maybe the seal with the eyecup isn't perfect, but I never had this problem with previous cameras.</P><P>Was wondering if anyone else has experienced this and any suggestions.&nbsp; It's a minor problem; but-when shooting manually- one tends to run out of hands quickly.</P> Thu, 06 Aug 2020 20:41:30 GMT ejd65 2020-08-06T20:41:30Z https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/EOS-DSLR-Mirrorless-Cameras/5D-Mark-iv-viewfinder-meter-washout/m-p/315535#M73770 <P>I recently purchased my first 5D Mk iv and noticed an odd problem - when I am taking pictures in bright daylight with the sun behind me (good place for it generally!), the light meter through the viewfidner washes out - I can't read it.&nbsp; I have to cup my left hand on over it for it to be visible.
