Hi Lars,



We had a discussion on the 7D, in a 7D vs 5D II topic, where I mentioned the problems I had with the 7D VF and its tunnel vision aspect, especially in combination with th efact that I have to wear glasses.



Today I had the opportunity to compare the 550D, 50D and 7D side by side, with the same lens, so I thought I'd share my experience here.



Essentially, the 550D is the only camera of the three where I have a complete overview of the entire focusing screen without having to move my head/eye. With the 50D I have to move a little, and with the 7D a lot.



The "amount" of tunnel view experience not only depends on the camera body, but also the lens used. It si worst with the 7D, slightly less so with 50D, and slightly less again with 550D. The worst experience is with 18-135 IS at 135 mm, followed by 15-85 IS at 85 mm, and least with the 18-55 IS.



Do note that this is the case for me, having to wear spectacles all the time.



Kind regards, Wim
