Yes that’s exactly what I though was going on. Like a pop up viewfinder. Does not stop you from taking a pic even though you may be just seeing at that point only the middle part. Did it all the time.
By the way I had all kinds of prisms but waist level finders were always my main finder. And the pop up magnifier which could pop down again was a main reason. That and the light weight.

    Here, let me put it in terms you'll understand.
    
    Remember how you'd pop down that magnifier over the waist-level finder of a
    Rollei twin-lens reflex and it would magnify part of the ground glass to
    help you focus but that wouldn't change what field of view actually went on
    the film?
    
    Like that, only digital.
