Mark--

Just for reference, the angle of view on the 28mm is 75 degrees; on your
24mm it is 84 degrees. That might help you judge a bit better how much more
of the view the 24 will grab for you outside the viewfinder.

Greetings all.  I have a question regarding use of the 24mm elmarit lens
with an M6 ttl .72.  I was wondering if the full view through the .72 finder
is approximately the coverage of the 24mm.  I see that the 28mm brightlines
leave some room in the finder outside its edges, which I thought may well be
close to what the 24mm gives.  After spending a fortune for the 24mm, I
don't want to have spend another fortune on the finder if I can live without
it.  Thanks for any info.
