Subject: [Leica] recomendation on 50mm finders

Hi folks,

been playing with my 'new' screwmount addition, Tower(Nicca)5L it's a great
little camera- has a couple of great features not found on Leica
Screwmounts of the same period- like, lever advance, a flip up back (like
an M) and synchronized pc outlet. (see Stephen gandy's site)
But, when I mount my Canon 50/1.4 with the lens shade (thanks Jem Kime!)
the viewfinder is pretty much obscured! So, what 50mm finder is reasonably
priced and fairly  well made?

Thanks in advance!

Oh- a multi finder might be considered as I'll be using this body with a
35mm and the 50.....

see yah later!
