I got a problem with the viewfinder. The setting indicator in the viewfinder looks blur. It is hard to see the setting there. Is it normal? Or any setting to set the setting display in viewfinder?

I've tried to move the dial to left til the end and the picture display bcoming sharp but the setting display still blur. Anyone know why?? It is newly bought anyway.

If by dial you're referring to the dioptric adjustment knob (upper right corner of the viewfinder), turning it will sharpen the 9 AF points and viewfinder info display. If not you'll have to get a separate dioptric adjustment lens (manual p36).

You have to press and hold the * button.
Watch this youtube review and you will understand more if you just started like me:

May be you misunderstood what i mean. The problem i facing now is the setting display showed in green colour at the bottom of the viewfinder. It looks blur even the picture taking after focus is sharp.

 

[ry0suk1]

What about manual focus?

My equipment update

 

[avalancheseah]

Apparently, Canon has removed the facility for checking the shutter count on the 500D

Using the camera for movie will hurt on the sensor... thus reducing the shutter count... am i right? Thus it's difficult to gauge the shutter count for 500D, likewise for 5D markII, and the new 7D.

Can anyone correct me if I'm wrong?

 

[RedHornet]

Care anyone advise me

Can tamron AF18-270mm F/3.5-6.3 Di II VC (Vibration Compensation) LD Aspherical (IF) Macro be use on Canon 500D?

Just call the shops up to check if they have stock.
