Haha, I don't know anyone who wants to leave something to chance. The opposite is true by using the rangefinder you leave less to chance as you can anticipate the moment and see what is going on at the moment of exposure. Also I didn't see anyone mention using the evf or liveview all the time. OP asked about using an eve for landscape and like I said for critical framing and focusing especially if the camera is down low where you can flip the eve up it is really worth while.the whole rangefinder experience is about "leaving something to chance". By using the EVF and the liveview all the time you are actually missing out on the rangefinder experience
And long telephotos.I tried an M today with the EVF.
I'm sure it is very useful with uncoupled lenses ...
I guess nobody has tried the very new Olympus VF-4 in it?
Probably won't work because of firmware requirements, but if it does you've got a great deal and leading-edge clarity.
Never seen that rumorRumor has it that the new Oly one might be working when the new firmware gets released.
Will Leica update to the VF-4 EVF? - Seite 5 - Leica User ForumNever seen that rumor
do you have a link ?
thanks
I am considering the EVF as a part of a weight reducing strategy. I assume that it can be used for comfortable focusing with small tripods. I would ditch my large tripod with heavy ballhead and replace it with one of the Traveller or Ocean models or something like that. Probably not the most typical use of EVF, but I think it might work.Just got my new M. Wondering now if I want to pop for the EVF. I do mostly landscape. Lenses from 12-135. Whaddya think?
I don't know how using an EVF changes what you feel necessary to use as a tripod ... Can you explain?I am considering the EVF as a part of a weight reducing strategy.
