Tom, I heartily agree with you there.
While I can live with less than full frame (ie. your 28-70 actually becomes something closer to 45-112 depending on the amount you lose), it's hard to live with a non-accurate viewfinder. I just completed shooting stuff from the Tokyo Motor Show using a borrowed Canon D30 and I found it hard to really compose a "good" shot through the viewfinder knowing that the recorded shot will not match; sure, I can crop on the computer but it kind of defeats the whole purpose of being able to go from camera to presentation in a single step! At least with consumer-grade digicams, you can frame your shot using the LCD monitor and know that what you shoot will be what you get... Cheers.
