Re: [OM] (OM) (OT) OM Screens (was something about macro)

[Tris Schuler]

I currently have two Olympus 2 screens installed and one Beattie. For the 
life of me I can see no difference in brightness or texture. (So much for 
my eyesight these days. <g>)
As for the grid John Hermanson scribes: these have become indispensable to 
me in the three years or so I've used them. I strongly recommend this aid 
used in conjunction with the plain-circle screens.
