>>4378572>It shows where the rangefinder mechanism is aligned hopefully relative to the focusing scale on the lens that may or may not be accurate at the momentIf we're going to get that pedantic, SLR's also have the same problem. You aren't seeing what the actual film/sensor will capture, you are seeing what the lens projects on the mirror, which also may or may not be accurate. Modern SLR's have AF tuning for a reason.
>Which is why the majority of leicatographyHardly, plenty of people, myself included, often shoot at wider apertures. I honestly consider my r more reliable for f1.2 focus than an mf SLR, it's much easier to visualize how far "off" of focus you are, making it easier to nail correct focus quickly.
>There are no pros to rangefinders To you, because of your subjective preferences. I already listed several pros for me here
>>4378471For the 4th? time, yes, rangefinders can't do everything, which is why they make so many different cameras. We can invent any number of hypotheticals for any camera where it wouldn't be the most optimal choice. What a useless endeavor.
