There's only one way to do it. You get two cameras together, side by side, hold them both up, one in each hand, vertically, and present them to each eye, together. Doesn't matter which lens is attached. The relative sizes of the finders will be obvious. I held Cesar's *ist D and my 1D mark II up together and i could not detect a difference in the finder sizes. Cesar reckoned that the *ist D was bigger by a scosh, but he would say that wouldn't he ;-) Bottom line - the Pentax viewfinder is about the best for the buck.
