They made revolving turret viewfinders for the Kiev-4, which will work for 5 lenses. They cost as much or more than the Kiev-4 itself.

The Kiev-4 has a central rangefinder patch, and it strikes me that it might be just a little bit smaller than a 135mm angle of view. I wonder if it could be used as a composition aid with that lens.

Turret finder, only proper for a Kiev. With some patience these are normally for much less than a Kiev itself, but than again Kiev is a $50 camera (if working correctly), some try to sell it for multiple of that. So with that assessment, turret finder is certainly not going to be any cheaper, especially since it is actually a pretty good one.
