Out of focus

By premab on Dec 29, 2007

" "

New camera suddenly went out of focus. The image and viewfinder are out of focus. This happened while my son was using it in our car so it wasn't dropped or damaged in anyway.

- I would like to give a big "Thank You" to Scargo with the dioptic tip. It is Xmas day and when I grabbed the camera everything with blurry in the viewfinder no matter what I seemed to do. Google sent me to this chain and his suggestion to the original problem listed was right on target for me!

Thank you for keeping my holiday merry and forever captured in focus!- Guest

- I have the same problem with my camera - Samsung S1030. It won't auto-focus on any of the modes. If you turn it on and off a few times it may auto focus again for a while but then will go back to a blurry image.- helform

If there is a diopter adjustment, for the viewfinder (to take into account a person wearing glasses) then that may have been changed and images just appear out of focus(in the viewfinder) when in reality, they may not be, if the camera is in autofocus mode.
Check these settings. Since I do not know what kind of camera this is I cannot be sure whether this diagnosis is valid.
What do the images look like when you download them?
