I could imagine doing to opposite: sticking M2 VFs in >M4-Ps, just to get the uncluttered view. Martin In the M3, you get 50mm, 90mm, and 135mm framelines, all solo players. In the M2, you get 35mm, 50mm, and 90mm, again, all solo players. It isn't until the M4 that the VF really starts getting "cluttered". Of course, if you want a REALLY uncluttered view, check out the M1 or MDa. Now, THOSE guys give you a marvelously clear 1:1 view suitable both for those of us who wear glasses and those who don't.
