Of course you aren't nuts. To each his own. No disrespect intended. I found it surprising that someone presumed an individual point-of-view was an insult.Gim said:
Perhaps my expectations for a bright screen are lower than others'. I learned on dark screens. When I frame an image with, for example, a Super-Angulon 90mm I simply don't expect to see the full image at once. I can see enough of the edges, one at a time, to verify the frame and enough in general to know if I've corrected perspective.
Let me add that some time ago I replaced the original Linhof screens with SatinSnow glass and it is an improvement, however my screens were pretty beat up.
As time goes on, due to a worsening condition called AT, I rely more upon previewing with a separate finder, and use of the rangefinder Super Technika. Perhaps I owe an article to explain the approach, technique, rationale.
