    HELP! Canon 350d Problems.

    Hi
    I've just come home from work to find my new Canon 350d has arrived!
    Just put it together, however theres a real problem!
    When I look through the viewfinder its as if i'm looking through a tunnel!!

    I can barely see through it because of this, as the image im seeing is tiny!!

    How do I fix this?! Is it a problem with the lens or camera itself?

    Im so upset!

    P.s. Its the standard lens i'm using.

    Please help

    The diopitor might be set wrong, but it sounds like to me your lens is zoomed in on the wide side. I can't think of anything else this could be. If its not that then I have no clue.

    Hope you figure it out

    Hi,

    Firstly, I would suggest to look at the diopitor setting. If it is not that, then I would question the compatibily with your lense.

    Goodluck
