The newer black Canon finders are optically improved, and very useful. There are two types. I have had both of them and they seemed optically identic to me. One type has a manual parallax adjustement, that's the recommended one for the most bodies. The other type has a ball-bearing parallax adjust system (coupled with the lens). A well-thought feature, but unfortunately works on the Canon VT and L series only; and stays on closest focus position on all other camera bodies. A cheap, but quite useful solution is the russian turret finder. But for a Canon P I would definitely recommend the manual adjusted black Canon 135mm finder.
