Yep, I absolutely hated to use the NEX-7 EVF. It literally gave me a headache.

Definitely and I have compared the 6 and the 7 side-by-side; if I do get another NEX 7, I will team it with the iKan field monitor (for studio or video use) or use the NEX 6 for stills. Don\'t believe what the specs say; I have written about this elsewhere, but the NEX 6 EVF is way better to use, and headache free. It has better eye relief, too; for me perfectly useable.

And we already have the iKan; it it simply great to use, for video or macro.

I did seriously consider the 100s, too, and had one ordered locally (all the 100\'s bugs fixed; great OVF/EVF)—but still, one focal length. And, compared to film days when all cameras worked the same (film, aperture, shutter speed) today\'s cameras require a lot more thinking to get flow in work capacity, so I am goung to stick with the NEXs until the FF version come along. The NEX menu systems defy logic (and this was my work for many years) bit once set up, need almost no menu diving, apart from Format.

@ millsart: I will definitely try the RX1 EVF when next I can; I feel it\'s likely to be closer to the 6\'s than the 7\'s.
