Len, It's been shown that, on average, coincident-image rangefinders are more precise than split-image rangefinders at focal lengths up to about 85mm. Longer than that, the SLR's split image is more precise. I think I've read this twice: once on the Web and once in a column on rangefinders by a now-deceased columnist of the old Modern Photography or Popular Photography--Nathan Rothchild, or some such name.
