Yup -- as I recall, the 1-2-3-4 have the 97creen, while the consumer
market cameras and the OM-2000 indeed deliver a 93% view. I haven't
found any reference on the relative brightness (which also varies
somewhat by the focusing screen used in the pro-line systems, and of
course, your lens). I had both OM-1 and OM-4, separated by about two
years, though (the OM-1 was stolen, I saved and bought an OM-4 when in
Tokyo in '85), so I never had the chance to A/B them. The OM-4's
beamsplitter will steal a little light, but perhaps not enough to make a
visible difference.
