Actually, a non-HP F3 is fine with glasses... (and easier to use than
the FM/FG/FA with glasses, though those are OK with a bit of glasses
squishing against the finder...). And the F3 non-HP is a bit smaller
and lighter than the HP version, and not much bigger/heavier than
an FM/FA (and I just happen to have a couple of "good user"
F3's to sell...;-)
Hope This Helps
