The 28mm view on the Bessa R4 is just amazing, even for me and my glasses. Of course the M6 has a similar view, but I figured that I wanted to actually be able to afford a couple of lenses. So who needs auxiliary viewfinders if you have a great camera?

Lack of 28mm choices in RF, also methinks lack of 24/25mm, if you can't afford Leica lenses. ZM 25mm f2.8 is an exemplary lens in M mount for 25mm @ f2.8. But no decent faster-aperture lenses out there in M mount or ltm 39mm. Wish Zeiss could put their Sony mount lens ar these Fl in M mount. Optical calcs done just rehouse tose optical cells.

Well said! I agree.

FWIW, I took my own advice and bought this 28/21 Fujifilm finder. It's a bargain (plastic housing and class elements)! Its housing looks identical to the Voigtlander finders I own.
I also have the 28mm Zeiss finder, which mates the 25/28 framelines. Technically the Zeiss is a better finder (metal housing, glass elements, and big and bright to look through with less distortion), but in the real world a PITA to use because the framelines are so close together; it's also more than 5-times the price (when you can find them).
And BTW, I happened to inquire earlier today and the seller (Adorama) only had two of these finders left in stock (FWIW).
