I really love the 1-14 assuming I'm using lenses faster than f4. I find
that the standard screens, although advertised to work with lenses as
slow as f5.6, already become annoyingly sensitive to proper eye centering
with my f4 zooms. The diagonal split in the 1-14 is much more convenient
for me (I never have to rotate the camera more than 45 degrees to get
critical focus, and I rarely have to rotate it at all). Otherwise I like
a plain matte screen. The only plain matte 1-series screen I have is a
1-10, but I'm sure I'd be happy with a 1-4. I really like the 2-4 in my
OM-4. A 2-14 would be really nice. As would a 2-10.
