Hi all,
I consider buying a ZM 21 mm but I do not like the idea of an external viewfinder. Isn't it possible to reliably use this lens (which would offer corp-factor advantages for simultaneous use on M8) without an external finder ?!
Anyone tried this and can give insights?
thanx

i use the 25 w/o a finder but i think the 21 would be pushing it.

The widest view framelines on the M8 is for a 24, which gives an approximate view of 32mm as shown by the internal framelines. A 21 used on the M8 would be close to a 28mm lens. There are no such framelines on the M8. To frame properly, an external 28mm viewfinder is needed.

Iagree. Cosina's new Voigtlander Bessa R4 would be the way to go for someone who wants to shoot a 21 without an auxiliary viewfinder.
