Thank you Fred for the link. What i love about the GFX is the ability to customize the configuration. If you wish to have low/light profile just take off the view finder. The 50mm equivalent lens is small and relatively light so a great to go combination
I\'m almost certain they\'ll make a hybrid OVF/EVF VF for it eventually as well Given how well received and sold the 35/1.4 50 equiv was on X series and I\'m sure this 63/2.8 should be something special too
How do you expect they\'ll add an OVF to a camera with no mechanism for it? It\'ll be a hotshot finder maybe.

That\'s exactly what I meant, in the hotshoe just like the EVF. In fact due to form factor constraints they needed to make the EVF smaller than the X-Tx in the X-Pro camera\'s but with a modular external interface would be free of that restriction They also have to make a fixed angle of view in a camera internal OVF and it\'s set at 16mm which makes the bright line box very small at longer focal lengths. I still find the OVF/EVF very useful at longer focal lengths myself particularly when the subject is moving and easy to lose track of so I don\'t always use it in the more traditional way. With an external VF they could make different choices depending on the uses people find for it. I could see it being useful in the studio, for low light events and for fast moving subjects with longer lenses myself
