The eyes do present some distortion. I finally sold my RF-Summicron and bought a new 35 Summicron. Unless or until I get another camera body, I've been using a method a LUGger suggested. I put a piece of black electricians tape over the center frame window. This blanks out all the frames in the viewfinder and I simply use the outer edges of the window for framing. It seems to work fine. Now if only I could come up with a way to use a 75 Summilux on an M3...
