Dark? Have you ever compared it to anything else? Or are you writing
this based on heard rumours? I have compared it directly to VF in *istD
and the one in D70 is much smaller but much brighter and contrasty
too... I have just compared D70 viewfinder to the one in MZ-S. It is as
bright at f4.5 as VF in MZ-S at f3.5. And VF in MZ-S AFAIR is slightly
brighter than in *istD.
Manual focus is totally UNUSABLE (and tell you, I tried even with
long fast 2.8 lenses). Sometimes it's hard to see the details of the
subject.
It depends on one's eyesight :-) I tried manual focusing with Sigma
70-200/2.8 and micro 105/2.8 - yup - it wasn't as easy as with *istD,
but still quite possible and I had good results with it. But my
eyesight is perfect :-)
