Agreed. I held the *ist Ds and the Canon 1Dm2 up vertically side by side and looked through with both eyes. To me, the finders on both were the same size and brightness, and the 1D is a 1.3 crop. The *ist D and Ds finders are way bigger than other offerings. Now if you're comparing to a film camera, say the LX, well, then I suppose you could say that a digi SLR Hoovers in that regard, but I personally think you have to compare apples with apples...
