Hi: I am going to quote myself. This is the message I sent to the list about this matter six months ago: "Yesterday I installed a SB-21 focusing screen, intended for use in the LX in my MX. The new focus screen is 1 and 1/2 stops brighter, then I have to compensate using the ASA scale of the exposure meter. That's the only change observed, besides the brighter image through the viewfinder, which makes focusing easier." ------------------------------------------------------------------ Carlos Royo [EMAIL PROTECTED] Zaragoza (Aragon) - Spain ------------------------------------------------------------------ - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
