Setup my portable studio for my step daughters 21st on the weekend, the first time the studio has had a proper outing in a number of years.

Whilst sorting through them I noticed my framing was quite often off, needing some cropping on the right side, didn't take long to figure out it is my heavy dark framed glasses (Oakley Gauge 7.1), I am left eye dominant and whilst pushing up the camera to my eye with the added pressure of getting the job done I didn't notice that my glasses were blocking part of the viewfinder, hence my bad framing, go figure.

I think last time I had the gear out in anger I had frameless glasses.

Solved this issue with my new R6 :-)

There is a setting to reduce the size of the image in the viewfinder, much better now!
