Dats right, the difference in brightness between Olympus Series 2 and
Beattie is the same, about 2/3 stop.

| I'm just guessing that you mean the Beattie Intenscreens (get it:
| "Intense" + "screens"?). IMO there is no need to get off the Olympus bus
| since the 2-series screens brighten up the viewfinder very well and are

|
| These screens drop right into the OM-2S, OM-3's and OM-4's without a
hitch.
| It is tougher with the OM-1's and OM-2,2N because the screen is part of
| the meter path and affects exposure. You have to recalibrate the meter.
