    My dioptre will not give my enough adjustment,the idea in setting it up is to look at a featureless white wall or clear blue sky,and get the focus screen in focus.

    There is a attachment eye piece that helps that. I.e. the Pentax O-ME53 or the 3rd Paty KPS U-13C Magnifying Eyepiece

    How can you focus on a featureless wall. There is nothing to focus on?
