I agree entirely. When I use the 58mm I only use the viewfinder when I am
doing landscapes or when I am not in a hurry, otherwise I use the full
viewfinder and it workls quite well framing the full angle of view.  For
those that find a 58 or 60 w/o the added viewfinder, this is an easy way
around it.
