Something I haven't seen come up in this thread is the use of the Beattie
Intenscreens to combat the "viewfinder darkness" issue. I love 'em! I've
got one installed in my OM2s and recently order a couple more for my -1n
and my -4. Considerably brighter, contrastier, with a matte surface I can
really focus on. They come in a variety of styles (I get mine with the
grid lines and diagonal split image to make my shots appear like the
photographer knows which way is up <g>). Because no one carries them
locally, I order 'em from Dr. John for roughly $70 each.
Believe me, I've spent greater amounts of money on photo hardware that have
had less impact on the quality of my photos!
