If you take a piece of masking tape and put it over the finder 
illumination window this helps with this problem.  I went a little 
further and cut a piece of diffusion gel and put it over the window using 
2 sided tape.  This helps a lot, looks better than masking tape, but in 
certain circumstances the window still becomes hard to see.

HTH.
