My issues with EVFs are that they start giving me headaches if I\'m shooting for a while. I\'ve tried everything from switching eyes to focusing on not squinting so much, but, after using them quite a bit, I noticed that it was a problem, and I\'ve used several. If I were relying on manual focus lenses, like I did with NEX, then I\'d just deal with the EVF, but the combo usage of the RX1\'s OVF and LCD work well for me, which is why I got rid of the RX1\'s EVF, despite it being the best that I\'ve used.
Either way, I think the modular approach of the RX1 works nicely. While the X100\'s viewfinder situation is pretty slick, the RX1 does have a better LCD, EVF, and, while the OVF is \"dumb,\" it does provide a brighter view and doesn\'t have horizontal parallax, so there are some trade offs.
joe88, I also turn off the audio indicators, but I can feel the AF in my hand, so it hasn\'t been a problem at all. I like how you can deactivate the RX1\'s LCD screen, except for a strip at the bottom that shows shutter/ISO/aperture. Works great for the OVF.
millsart, my EVF also came with two eyecups, although I also prefer just using none at all. FWIW, I believe the EVF in the X100s is actually different than the one in the X-E1, but, either way, it isn\'t nearly as good as the Sony\'s.
