Hi Manuel: Why not build a metal-frame viewfinder similar to the ones which used to be used on Speed Graphic press cameras. These simple finders were remarkably effective since they had parallax compensation and even field-size compensation, since the front frame was mounted on the moving lens panel and the angle of view was reduced as the lens was racked out to focus close.
