Might the problem be that either the extra eye motion required by the HM finder or the extra visual angle out to the edge of the frame makes you less likely to/able to examine the edges of the frame? If this were happening, you might get unconsciously lazy and not catch the extra stuff going on out there. Certainly a 50 will be easier in this regard as the frame is smaller. But going to a 50 changes your way of seeing and composing - is this what you really want? Paul Chefurka
