M mount bodies framelines coverage ?

[Spyderman]

I remember seeing somewhere a table of M mount bodies and their coverage of the framelines - "for example M6 35mm frameline covers 87% at infinity". There was also Zeiss Ikon and some Bessa models...

Does anyone have a link to the site ?

Thanks in advance...

Dear Ondrej,

It's not quite what you're looking for, but go to

http://www.rogerandfrances.com/photoschool/zeiss.html

and scroll down a bit. There's a comparison there, taking the ZI frames as 100% and recording the others as +/- percentages.

Cheers,

R.

It is important to note that frameline coverages changed when the M4-P came out and Leica adopted the 3x2 frameline set as standard. Prior to that, framelines showed slightly more of the subject in the viewfinder. I have had an M4 and now and M4-2 and both show a bigger area with the 35 mm framelines than my M7 and previous MP. It seems Roger's data support this.
