I did not see any replacement matte screens for the MZ-5 - thus I wonder
whether this part is exchangeable easily.
I find the standard screen perfectly acceptable even for manual focus, there again I used a SG (grid) screen in one of my MX's for years without problems.
The viewfinder window is total b*ll*cks and spoils an otherwise very good Pentaprism viewfinder IMHO.

John,
You hit on a point I have thought about, grid screens. I have heard about them often enough that I have thought that once I got one for one camera I would want one for a few of my other cameras.
I always thought that using a matte screen for manual focus would not work for me. Once I got my ZX-5 I noted that manual focusing was not bad. I ended up trying to get a matte screen for each of my LXen.
When using my *ist D in manual focus I do not find the matte screen as a hindrance. I think I can thank the fact that my eyes are good enough to not let this be a hindrance. Though, as I get older, I can see this as makign a difference...
