Hi All,
I bought a faulty ME Super from Sungei Road on an impluse for cheap It comes with an OK-condition M 50 f2.0 lens.
I don't have experience using a manual-focus body SLR.
I was pleasantly surprised to look at the viewfinder. It's so big, bright, and so "close" to my eyes.
It's really a joy just to look through the OVF.
So I start wondering:
1. Is it technically possible to make an FF DSLR (not RF) as small as ME Super?
2. Does current manufacturer (all brands) actually focus on making better quality OVF? For example 100% coverage and very close to 1x magnification ...
I'm really not enthusiastic with the current trend of moving to EVF.
I went to a Sony gallery one day, looking through the EVF of a camera that has a 3000-dollar carl zeiss lens attach to it .... the image (through the EVF, not the result) looks blaahh ... I don't see the point.
For me, part of the enjoyment of taking pics is not only looking at the result, but the process of composing through a big, clean, clear, bright OVF as well.
Any thoughts?
