Could you guys please explain what aspects of the VFs you are referring to ? i.e. brightness, contrast, magnification, eyepoint, accuracy/matching sensor, ease of manual focus, information, etc etc etc. When you say somethings better or worse about one vs another its nice to know what parameters in particular you noticed as different. jco

I find them about equal in viewfinder quality, with a slight edge to the Nikon. The K10D viewfinder is slightly better than the *ist DS and on par with or better than the Nikon D200 as far as I can tell. I have only just looked through a D80 once and didn't feel that it was any better than the *ist DS. The K-M 7D also had a very good viewfinder, to my eye it and the *ist DS were on par.
