Adam, I got these figures off dpreview, so I suppose they are correctly listed.
Sometimes the magnicication is noted as "magnification", sometimes as a "function" of the used lens, like this: • Viewfinder magnification approx 0.94x with 50 mm f/1.4 lens (Nikon D200). Someone might want to explain the difference og these definitions - if there is one.
