All of these close focusing lenses except the 28 require accessory viewfinders, so I assume that the problem is handled there. It will be interesting to see how parallax compensation for the 28 is handled, once the camera is available. The literature indicates that the accessory viewfinder for the 25 doubles as a VF for the 28. Since framelines for the 28 are built into the VF, it's possible that the accessory finder provides better framelines for close-up focus - unless it is just an alternative finder for folks with glasses. Bill How do you figure the accessory VF will correct for paralax error? It is either set for distance or for close up, it can't be for both unless it has multiple frame lines, in which case it will get pretty messy if it works for 2 lenses. gene
