I have a IIIf.  While she is mine to love, the viewfinder is like =
looking through a keyhole, and it has always left me feeling guilty for =
not having a 'm' camera!  Since I love the IIIf, I bought a 135mm finder =
for use with my tele lens.  Does anyone out there have experience with a =
135 brightline finder?  Apparently it does not have any paralax =
compensation.  How do you compensate for nearer photos????  Guess =
apparently?  Any comments on using accessory finders for the tm system?  =


ps.  Thanks for all the feedback on the G2, but after a long hard talk =
with my soul, I cannot part with my Leica even long enough to look =
through another camera!  ha!  Perhaps when the bifocals are needed....  =
