I'm not sure if I overread it in sean's review, but he took quite some shots with the Zeiss and Leica 21.

Thanks.
You will need a 28mm finder to match the coverage of the 21mm/M8. Plenty of alternatives ..check Camerquest.com for some. I plan on using my Leica 28mm finder because I already have it. The 24mm frame is right to the edge so you can go without the aux finder for 21 but you will lose the precise framing .
