It's sounding better and better. Do you find the light amplification of
the EVF to be sufficient that you can focus properly with an MF lens
already closed down to taking aperture... assuming modestly bright light
and modest apertures like f/5.6? I assume it must be if you can shoot
with the M.Zuikos which may be wide open at f/6.3 at longer focal lengths.
