I was wondering why I lost the rooftops of several cathedrals in Italy. I thought it happened because I was shifting my eye up and down to compensate for wearing glasses and saw more than was actually there. Now the plot thickens. Thanks for the heads-up, John. I didn't realize the proportions of the finder were off. I've been very pleased with the performance of the Voigtlander 25mm Skopar lens. I don't use it very often, but needed, it comes in very handy. Just remember to frame a little looser, I guess. Or perhaps I could cobble up a Dr. Blacktape solution--a little strip at the top and bottom of the finder ought to do it. It's too bad Cosina didn't make the 25 finder with bright lines, but I suppose that would entail making the finder bigger and more expensive. - --Peter >on 10/6/01 10:53 AM, tm at leicar8@earthlink.net wrote: > > I am using Voigtlander's 25mm lens' viewfinder with my Leica 24mm ASPH and > > can't find fault with it at all.
