If I can find some time, and figure out how, I will try and take a photo of my viewfinder with the v4 Elmarit attached. I don't know how to get photos off my phone and into the computer (my 21-year old son would roll his eyes about now). But, I have a few options with digital cameras....

It is easy. Take picture with mobile phone, find this picture right away and send it by email to yourself. This is how I'm getting them on computer.
It will be interesting to see how V4 is showing up in VF.
Here is the link with 28 2.8 ASPH and 28 2 ASPH.

And here is the link of 28mm Summicron , Elmarit V4, V3.

Email? on the phone?
Just kidding. I don't have email set up on my phone for security purposes. I would have to submit to a special surveillance software if I did want that.
I did just try shooting through the VF with my m4/3 camera and it didn't work. I need to figure out why. Then I tried using the phone and it worked a little better, but still fiddly. I can't get quite the same view as I get when putting my eye to the camera. But, this is all tangential. I made a shot that slightly exaggerates the lens in the corner of the VF and I will find some way to get that here (RFF). Give me a moment...

OK, I shot the image on my phone screen. Quick n dirty, but seems adequate.
Because it seems impossible to get my phone lens close enough to the viewfinder, I couldn't quite get the entire VF area, so this image is oriented slightly to show the lens in the corner. In practice, the lens intrudes a little less than this. This is an M2 viewfinder. Obviously, no hood here.
I shoot this combo occasionally and its so much better than the v3 Elmarit. I too just imagine the full extent of the VF as the 28 FOV. Close enough for what I'm using this lens for.
