The 21 and 24 finders are optically identical but the framelines are smaller on the 24: the whole view is the same on both. If you take a quick look at a 21 you will see and should be able to visualise the different framelines. In practice you may however confuse which lens you are using if shooting quickly but it is at least better to frame too loosely with the 24 finder and a 21 lens than the other way around...
