FWIW, I would go for the individual finder, for two reasons:

- - the bright lines, which I much prefer to the masked-off view of the
combination finder. I like to be able to see what's happening around the
edges of what I'm about to shoot, and the bright lines create this
possibility.

- - the size. The combination finder is *huge* compared to the 24 finder.
Though I'd prefer the seemingly stronger construction of the multifinder, I
don't want the extra size (especially as I only have the 24 and wouldn't be
able to use the 21 or 28). In fact, I'd love to dispense with external
finders all together, but I haven't been satisfied with my ability to
guesstimate coverage w/out one.

Just my point zero two.
