As much time as he needs to. If EVFs don’t work for him, why worry about it?

For what it's worth (not much), the K and M42 mounts have a 45.46mm registration distance.
The reason for the 43mm lens focal length is its near-equivalence to the film/sensor diagonal (a proxy for "normal" focal length across formats).
But yes I agree that certain focal lengths are easier to design for specific registration distances.

A few from the most recent roll through the 6x7. All with the 105mm lens, and 20+ year-old Kodak Pro 100. I rated it at ISO 50, which seemed pretty good exposure-wise. Colors are decent too. I chalk it up to good storage by the previous owner and myself. The lab scans are acceptable for my use. To get better quality (IMHO) would probably require sending it out of state to a premium lab or investing in my own setup, which I'm not currently prepared to do.
I love the dead trees of the American Southwest--such character. (Of course I want most of the trees to stay alive...)

Pretty sure this was wide open. Should have stopped down one or two to get the full shrub in focus, but got the sort-of-miniature look going so there's that.

The rock layer underneath had a perfect grid pattern in it.

The compression of the 400 works great with these scenes, I think. Nice shots.

Yes, I am almost sad to say that acquiring the 20-40 has greatly reduced my usage of my 21 and 40 primes. I still consider myself a "prime guy" (it's all I use on film), but the 20-40 is great for a walkaround WR zoom when you don't know what you'll see and can't/don't want to bring any other accessories.
Edit to say I ADORE my 21 Ltd, and would have recommended that lens before your LBA resolved the dilemma, lol. The 20-40 is silent, stylish, WR, has good IQ, and is generally very USEFUL, but I don't love it they way I do the 21, 31, and 77 Ltds, e.g.

It also allows you to use a wider aperture if you are hitting the limit of your shutter speed. If you have f/1.4 selected and a 1/8000 shutter speed still overexposes your scene, an ND filter will get your shutter speed back in range.

I shoot raw 90% of the time, as was the case here. Ran them through Lightroom to "unflatten" them a bit. I try not to overdo it in my post processing--I want to keep my photos pretty true-to-life, while recognizing that a camera and an eye see things very differently.
