I really like using a waist-level finder, myself.  I used a Rollei TLR and,
before that, a Hasselblad, and a Bronica. You're right, full frame is great.
The only full frame, 100% view 35mm I own is a Nikon F.  I have a
waist-level finder for it, too.

        Nah - just the 105mm or 150mm     But the low shooting
        position has merit at times.  The rest is just "maximizing
        all the small factors" - though I have no qualms w/ regular
        handheld technique w/ either of these lenses when that is
        what the situation would require   ;^)

        I have been developing a sense of what will be cut off by the
        smaller view of the prism, but in these shots from "scenic
        overlooks" I wanted the full frame for composition.
