Well, I just have have been bitten up by the brightness and clarity of Minolta Maxxum 7 or 9 screens (not sure at the cost of contrast -manual focusing is quite nice and convenient with them either)
Comparative to these the one in my EOS-3 is looking dim. Nevertheless, having said all that and thinking again I indeed perhasp will pass on it - to many uncertaincies involved. However would be better to consider Ec-D screen also (grid) becasue I often have troubles with horizons and architectural alignment. BTW, is this one dimmer then the regular one of EOS-3 ?
