I went the 35mm finder route first. I tried the Voigtlander one and found its eye relief to be too small and I do not wear glasses. I then tried the limited production plastic Leica one and was happy. The eye relief was fine (perhaps not with glasses though) and the image size seemed just right. As it was the same as the 0.58x camera, I decided to give that a try and have no regrets. I can now not only see the frame but I can also easily see around the frame as well. Supposedly the old SBLOO 35mm finder has good eye relief and is 1:1 (though all the specs I find say 0.7x). I have not found one to try and the price to get one is very steep. You may have better luck in Seattle or amongst your friends and acquaintances.
