Anyway, sometimes I like to play with frame lines preview while shooting just to check how the composiiton would look with other then 50mm lens and I'm struck with 28mm frame lines. The vertical lines can be barely visible simmultenously (I try to carefully center my eye over the finder), whlist the side lines are totally out of the view. In order to see them, I need some kind of eye-acrobatics and even then only one-side line can be noticed at the finder side boundaries, either left or right. So I wonder how it can be possible to effectively use 28mm frames on M6 Classic (0.72) with corresponding lens ? What are your experiences ? Do you just use entire field of view of the finder and accept the fact of some additional parts to get on the film that couldn't be seen in the finder ? Thanks, Alex
