I didn't know about this! Are Beattie focusing screens really brighter than say a K2
from Nikon?
<The Beatties are available in different flavors: split diagonal w/grid and

Are all these variations available for FM2n?
Which do you think is better for low light, the split horizontal w/o grid or the plain
w/o grid?
