What does appeal to me also is being able to use

the SL66

edges which makes it difficult to check. A 'roving' magnifier on
the ground glass might give a clearer view.
The view through the ground glass is hard to appreciate without a
cover over your head and the camera - somewhat impractical with such
a small light camera such the Rolleiflex. I've spent a little too
much (OCD) time comparing the view through the ground glass and
through the finder, and it's not worth noting. Unless of course the
camera is on a tripod and at eye level, when the finder is out of reach.
