My Ikon is dead, and too pricey to fix. I shoot 35mm most of the time. The only thing I dont' like about the CLE is the lack of 35mm frame lines. But, part of life. Using the Zeiss Biogon 35/2.8, I get 28mm framelines. Any idea if the 35/2 gives the 40mm framelines, or even better, both?
 
No 35mm mount lens will bring up the 40mm framelines. The 28mm framelines on a CLE are visible all the time so technically a 35/135mm mount simply doesnt bring up any of the variable framelines at all. Only a lens with a 50mm mount will bring up the 40mm framelines.
