28mm lens in my 28 frame line

[gustav[] pEña]

I see to much of my 28mm lens in my 28 frame line. Does the cunrrently 28 f2.0 and 28 f2.8 lens appears in the 28mm frameline? Does the 35mm and 50mm lenses are seem in their respective framelines?


Well, my english is not that go so i hope this paragraph is well formulate it.

Gustav, it depends mostly on how big the lens is. Especially the faster lenses tend to be quite big and intrude into the frames of your viewfinder.

Without a lens hood on some lenses may not intrude but add a hood and they will. Some hoods have cut outs to help in this. After awhile you don't seem to notice it as much.

This intrusion of the lens and especially the hood is a "fact of life" with RF cameras. I just checked that the 2.0/28mm is just barely visible (without its hood) at the extreme lower right in both M2 (which has no 28mm framelines) and the Minolta CLE (which does). The hood has a cutout for viewing, but it's still much more intrusive. Big lenses obviously will hide more of the viewfinder than smaller ones.
