The 2 series screen is the finest I have ever seen, the 4Ti has half mirror
so it is not as bright as the 2n with same type of screen. With a slow tele,
the 2 series screen is much brighter than all other screens including
Beattie with the 2n, you may not see this different with F2.8 or brighter
lenses.

> I have a Beattie in my OM-2n.  J. Hermanson recalibrated the Auto exposure
to take it into account.  It is _very_ much brighter, I find even brighter
than my 2 series screen in my 4Ti.  However, I find the 2 series screen
easier to focus.  I'm not sure why.  I think it's because I've ceased using
the split-screen in the middle, and mostly use the ground glass.  The glass
on the Beattie is finer (?) don't know if that's the right word.  I like
mine.
