Btw 1(n) vs 3 (and other in the context of eye-focus): seems the IR-
sensor that comes with the eye-focus system requires a IR-pass or -
block filter in the viewfinder, leading to a slight color deviation 
in the red spectrum.
(I only have this discussion seen in a German newsgroup, in which it 
was questioned why the viewfinder of the 3 did not get the best note, 
like the 1....apparently it is more than just having 100% image or 
not....)

Can't recall ever having seen this discussion elsewhere.
