Put a slow super tele on it you will see the OM 2 series screen are
much finer and brighter. It is the brightest screen I have ever seen,
including the Can*n laser matte for early AE-1 and later EOS; Min*lta
acute matte and the Bettie. And yes, the Bettie has serious vignetting
problem with super wide lens due to the fresnel ring are double width
as compared to the OM. I have almost tried every focusing screen
available.
For general photography I will use the Minolta one. If I'm going to
use long tele, I will put on a 2-4.
