Gee. What could go wrong? UHH member says ignore the math, I have this all figured out better than the manufacturers.

You also left out the fact that the 2 cameras have different pixel counts, 20% different.
No. That is what I pointed out. It’s the main reason for the difference. I just didn’t do the numbers for you.

What looks same in VF will be different in on screen view if sensor is different. That’s the point!

Bingo! Then all you need is a reference, something like a standard field of view on a 24 x 36 mm piece of film is 43 degrees (I made that up) using a 50 mm lens.
Field of view equal will display larger or smaller depending on sensor size AND sensor pixels.

This is a completely invalid comparison. Physical dimensions of a digital image make no sense for comparison.
Wrong. They affect ability to crop for small distant subjects.

That model camera would stink. They didn't make the viewfinder commensurate with the image on the sensor?
Mine is the same.
(Actually I get a skosh more in the picture that what I see in the viewfinder.)

For the same camera the image size varies with the square of the focal length! Math matters if you use the correct formula.

The only thing that matters is this. If the photo you end with looks like what you envisioned form the start looks the same, who cares what shutter speed, focal length, f-stop, ISO or camera you use.

Your second sentence is in conflict with your first sentence. However your whole post is in full compliance with UHH Sacred Tradition. IOW, you have mistaken schidt for shinola.
