I was just comparing the viewfinder between my 5n and a friend's 50. I was a bit amazed to discover that my 5n's viewfinder has gives everything a rather warm (or woody) cast, while the 50 had a bluish (or tinny) cast, and I didn't get the same satisfaction composing with it (even though it probably was of no consequence to the produced image).
If you're wondering, I did swap lenses to make sure, it wasn't the lenses. Anyway, I just had the horrible thought that maybe some newbie slightly interested in photography might pick up a relatively cheap body like a 50, and because of the less than satisfactory viewfinder, not get as into photography as he/she could have been otherwise. Anybody notice the viewfinder difference too? Any thoughts? Regards, Ryan PS Anybody want to compare their ist D viewfinder (woody? tinny? something else perhaps?) to their film viewfinders?
