im not completely sure exactly what my preference is with finders. obviously, the brighter the better. but size of finder i think is a preference.
when i shoot and really concidering the composition, i actually prefer the smaller-far away finer, its like holding a picture back, rather than looking too close to your face.
but when it comes to seeing a small detail in the frame, like someones expression when they are small in the background, the bigger the better.
does anyone know how well those "brighter screens" like maxwell ones are?

I have the maxwell brightening of my contax (2) and they are really quite good. esp since I also use manual focus Hassey and Leica (YES!) lenses.
Also, the Hasselblad lenses inherit exposure and focus confirmation on the Contax. I have had the Kodak 16MP back, the P25, the P45 and my P45+ comes monday!
I cant see that any current system matches the flexibility and quality (no problems with two cameras, 6 lenses, and four backs) in years [touch wood! :-)
Maybe Michael privately regrets selling his Contax 645 system?
