Having had both, well, for my glasses-shod eyes the MX viewfinder has too much magnification and too little eye relief. It is nice and bright. ;-) The K10D viewfinder is about a half stop brighter than the *ist DS and the screen has a slightly nicer focusing texture. That said, I'm probably a little less sensitive to these things than to the overall viewability of the focusing system for framing .. I have no problems focusing manually with either, presuming a lens with good wide open contrast and sharpness is fitted. I find it really annoying when I have to keep moving my eye around just to see what's in the viewfinder at the edges rather than being able to take it all in with a glance.
