Pic of X1 next to Barnack "Standard"?

Looking at the pictures again and I wonder why they couldn't have raised the top plate one side and given us a view-finder for (say) the three commonest lenses?

And it would really look retro then...

Probably because it has a fixed lens, and you can fit it in a coat pocket without the finder attached.

It helps as well that there are an abundance of auxillary 35mm viewfinders available, even if the lens does equate to a 36mm.

Looks good to me.

something wrong here. The I with a 50mm lens but has a SBLOO on its top.

Robin, probably just for comparison purposes, not for use.

I fully agree with you.
