Iestimate the distance to the object...(but with my Super Angulon 21 mm f3.4 I lse frequently use the hyperfocal distance setting) but it´s all worth it -

The enclose picture I have named "In my kitchen", from my 2 bedroom apartment where I live - is the picture too dark?
 

 

It sounds as if you don't use the rangefinder of your M4. Why not? Once you use the M4 often, you probably will speed up the process of shutter speed and aperture choice with a lightmeter, focus with the rangefinder and shoot.

I don't think your photo is too dark, if this resebles the actual situation.

It is a special case if the 21 mm lens is used - I find it necessary to use the extra 21 mm finder to determine what will be captured in the photo and what is not. But by using a hyperfocal distance setting, the required settings ar limited to two variables, aperture and shutter speed. And - those two are considered anyway, during stetting the hyperfocal range. 

So, to take pictures with the 21 mm wide angled Super Angulon lens, the range finder of the camera is practically not needed then!
