I think they're similar in brightness. I have both, and prefer the Oly. I don't
use microprisms -- the Beattie I have is a grid, and it is much coarser and
distracting than the OM. Also, the matte focusing surfuce seems to be coarser
and harder to "snap" into focus.
I wouldn't turn down a Beattie for the right price, but at similar prices, I'd
choose the Oly.
