Well, 24mm happens to be my widest lens and no, I haven't noticed the 
difference there. Then again I can't say I specifically looked at the 24mm with 
those screens in mind. I'm down in Arizona until the middle of this coming 
week. I'll try to remember to check into it when I return.

Have you tried with say a 24mm lens or something shorter? I find the Oly 
2 series screens to work better with WA lenses, darkening less. The 
wider the lens, the greater the difference. This is from memory, now, as 
the Beattie is sitting in a drawer, replaced with a 2-4 some months ago.
