Subject: [Leica] MP Viewfinder still flare

My M6TTL .85 had flare, then I had the MP mod installed.  It is much 
better now, but on the rare occasion it will flare , but far less than 
before.  Keeping the eye centered usually solves any flare problems now. 
On the plus side, the frame lines seem brighter/more contrasty now, which 
is also very good.

I've never had my M2 or MP.72 flare out on me.  My M6 .85 flared so much 
it interfered with my sanity.  Don't torture yourself.

Normal, the new finder does reduce flare quite a bit but it does not 
eliminate it. My modified finders flare about the same as my old M2.
