The fact that it will be easier to use a 24 without the extra finder and also
easier for my glasses to see the 35mm framelines makes it good for me. And that
is my main focal lenght. (still love 50s)
Now someone has to come out with a 135mm finder because I have a new lens and I
am prone to use it.
An interesting choice taking those framelines out. I'd think they could insribe
an waver in German on the back of the camera next to Queen Elizabeths name.
I do have the 24 and not a 21.
But so far I'm happy with my .72 finders.
