No, I'm saying that the focusing screen was unusable for manual focusing
when the camera was not powered up. No matter how you turned the
focusing ring the viewfinder seemed dark and unfocused.
Once power was turned on the viewfinder brightened and manual focus was
possible... Well mostly, the finder was bright and /everything/ looked
to be in focus, what was in or out of focus was very subtle, to put it
diplomatically.

Are you saying that you focus with the camera turned off, then turn it
on and hit the shutter button? That sounds like an unusual method of
work.
I'm a little confused here.

without power the viewfinder was unusable for focusing.
