I had a quick play with a Kodak DCS330 a few days ago, this camera has a sensor 
roughly the same size as 4/3 in a Nikon Pronea APX body.  The interesting thing 
was that instead of masking down the viewfinder image to the sensor size the 
focussing screen was marked with a rectangle showing what would be on the 
sensor giving the same sort of effect as a rangefinder camera with frame lines 
so you could see what was just outside the frame.  Anything else about the 
camera was unremarkable.
