Is it possible to brighten the focus point(s) in the viewfinder.

Using the Canon 3Ti.

Wearing tri-focal glasses it's hard to see them at times (depends on lighting, background, etc.).

Welcome to the site, iClick.

You can't brighten the points, but you could try this solution:

Or

I am told these work, and the investment is small...

Why do so many people say "FER-tographer"? Do they take "fertographs"?

Hi, ScottyP,

Thanks for the links.

I didn't know such things existed.

I believe it's worth a try.

Thanks again.
