Hey guys,
I wonder are those 85mm Soviet Viewfinder (like the one picture bellow) the image view through is "zoom-in" to 85mm field of view or is it basically a tiny window at the end of a tunnel kind?
and as I'll be using it on my kiev 4 any idea how bad the parallax error can it get?
Some one suggest me those funky looking turret finder but those are too big and attract too much attention in my opinion
as usual, many thanks for any input!

It's just a galileian scope, masked to give the right field of the choosen lens.
In fact, the Soviet finder for the 135mm. is just an 85mm. one with a further, slip-on mask.
In my opinion, the better thing is to find the turret, revolver finder, that has some parallax correction too.
