I for one, like the split image viewfinders in my Chinon body cameras (CP-5 and 6). Old age and failing eyesight make it a no brainer for me. Hate the flat viewfinders on my PZ-20 and -70 bodies except when using AF....again a concession to poor eyesight. Nothing is perfect for every situation and with all equipment, so it is really personal preference.
