[LRFlex] Re: Leica on EOS 350D (also called Rebel digital XT in US)

Hi Aram,

Thanks for the comments.

Yes - I must agree.. the viewfinders does look small.
And that might cause some serious focusing issues..

I heard rumours of a new model from Canon, something
between the 20D and their flagship. I wonder, will
they improve on the viewfinder .... well, I am
hoping...
