that pic from juanky could easily be my own camera!
out in the rain last week (briefly, i still don't trust it's supposed weatherseal), and i gave it a quick wipe down with a soft camera lens cloth, including the viewfinder glass.
from then on, cloudy view.
obv tried adjusting the diopter, and thought for a while it might be condensation, but on looking in bright light under a magnifying glass, it's clear the problem is on the external side of the glass, and looks absolutely exactly like the picture above.
so, it seems this may be a weakness / manufacturing fault. i presume my camera's still under warranty - bought it just before xmas last year. but i use it very regularly, with jobs coming up, and can't afford to send it back to my ebay seller (in scotland i think) and have it out of my hands for days if not weeks.
has anyone contacted panasonic and got results? i will do, but busy few days ahead so will have to cope. i'm really gutted!
