Of course, 1 series screens can be etched too.

| Hi Tris:
|
| I was thinking about sending my OM-1 off to John for a CLA, and having
| an etched 2-13 screen fitted, but I wasn't sure if this was possible.
| It seems to me that I could have John re-calibrate the meter for the
| 2-13, but then all of the "one" series screens would throw off the
| metering.
|
| Did you go for a one series or two series screen?
