Could the problem with #2 be due to shutter lag? I always have to lead my subjects a bit because the camera doesn't "fire" right away.

: While diving I had the oportunity to use my wife's housed Sony DSC-P1 recently, and wonder if anyone can offer any information regarding the following:
:
: 1. I wear prescription lens in my mask, and have a problem seeing clealy the image screen before taking a picture. Is there any type of correction lens that can be used to help me see the screen?

: 2. We've both noticed that when using the camera in telephoto mode, both above and below water, there appears to be a difference between what's viewed on the image screen and what is "photgraphed"-the image that is captured is skewed to the right of the photo. Lost a great picture of a white tipped reef shark because of this-chopped off its nose. Has anyone encountered this, and what's the reason for it?
