Or the big stupid tri-finder sold previously. Or a 21 and 28 CV 
finder (optional 25 finder if you don't want to guess) if you tend to 
stick to one focal length for a while.

Boy that new finder is a lump. They must have looked at the Xpan 
finder for the 30 and said "we can design something worse than 
that!". Success!!!
