Messed up DSLR? =(
Hey guys, so recently i've noticed something wrong with my dslr.
I put my dslr in my backpack, and probably dropped it hard when i was at playland. And i get home i realize that when i look into the eye piece that the sight is kinda blurry even with AF on. HOwever the pictures look fine. Is there something wrong with the lens? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

You probably accidently changed the diopter setting...if you have a Canon xxD (don't know about other models), there is a dial beside the viewfinder, adjusting that should get your camera back into focus. Other cameras may have a similar dial nearby.

Cuz you dropped it.

Which dial are you talking about? The focus ring? Zoom ring?
