Hi there Martin !
Seems you have the very early 25mm v/f - what you see is supposed to be what you get on film. I can't actually provide you with the image you want, but I can tell you that with my own brightline 25mm v/f the bright lines are well inside the entire boundary of the finder and they actually show much nearer the coverage of a 28mm lens.
Maybe the makers just used the original optics and inserted the reflecting mask . . . but I don't know. Are you shooting on film or a digital Leica? I use a 21mm on my M8, which gives field of view equivalent to 28mm lens on full frame, and the 25mm v/f is just about dead right in that case! _________________ Stephen
