You're still a young man... I predict that you'll want a split image wedge on all of your cameras for manual focusing 20+- years from now when prespyopia catches up with you. :-)
Having said that, the isDS viewfinder is as bright as that of my Leica R8 and I don't have all that much trouble focusing either camera.
LOL ... I'm glad you think so. I'll be 51 in August. To many of my friends, I'm the old farte... ;-)
I have worn glasses with a fairly heavy correction since I was in 4th grade, tho. My vision is better today than it was 30 years ago because the glasses' corrections are more accurate. I don't find it difficult to focus an SLR at all, and particularly not the *ist DS.
