    Question View Finder is out of focus

    I have a older Kodak DC-240 1.3 pixel digital camera. Just yesterday I went to take a picture and I noticed that the view finder is very blurry like it was out of focus. I couldn't see anything clearly. The LCD screen is fine. What could have went wrong with the camera. I wonder what it would cost to have it fixed and if it would be worth it. Thanks!

    Have had similar problems - see which one works for you
    1. Pentax p&s - had blurry viewfinder because i had dropped it which had disturbed the arrangement of the lens within the viewfinder. I was told that this cannot be repaired
    2. Olympus - blurry vf, turned out that the doiptre setting was awry, just a tweak and the vf was fine

    cheers

    I don't have a doiptre setting. So I guess it's time to look for another camera. Thank you very much for your time and information.
