I believe he may be talking about the maginification (eye to subject/viewafinder to subject), when the camera is mounted with a 50 lens. It's true this one is apr. 0.75 for the *sit D and DS. But that's not different from that of many other cameras - including the D70. It seems high end cameras usually have a magnification (eye to subject) at apr. 0.8 1.0 using a 50mm lens: 20D: 0.90 EOS 1Ds: 0.70 300D: 0.88 D50: 0.75 D70: 0.75 D100: 0.80 D200: 0.94 D2Hs: 0.86
