To me, one of the most important valuable features about rangefinder cameras
like the Leica, is that you can see the subject area surrounded by a large
area. I like this feature. I makes it possible to see action headed for the
frame. I also find it helps composition by allowing me to see how the subject
area fits into its surroundings, and possibly to select a differnect area
because of what I can see. This may be quite individual; others may find the
view in the rangefinder annoying or distracting. It may dome down to taste.
