I disagree. When I use 100 % viewfinders, I always end up with important
stuff hidden behind slide mounts. Of course, I don't shoot chromes for work
any more. With my Leica R cameras, that isn't a problem. Even when I make
copy slides from prints for my portfolio, it's much easier to do with a
Leica R camera than a 100% viewfinder.
