Shot rangefinder cameras for years before SLR was available. A great improvement! Parallex was always a problem with RFs. As far as EVFs go, I just haven't seen one that shows the scene in what I feel is an acceptable way, although they are getting closer. Of course, this is personal preference at this point. The other part of the equation is that at present, there are no compact system cameras, 4/3 etc. that output the kind of quality that the higher end DSLRs do so the view finder became a moot point for me. The VF isn't the reason i bought my camera.

You must go back a ways. My first camera was also a rangefinder, an Argus C3 that was my dad's. But about 1968 I moved up to an Exacta SLR. As far as EVF's go I agree that many of them fall short. That said I think the oled viewfinder on my Sony Nex-6 is great. I would take this EVF over any SLR. I have the same oled EVF as an optional accessory on my Sony Nex-5n and I love the way I can angle it up for waist high shots.
