My new acquisition has a zone focusing screen while I'd prefer a split image one.Where can I pick one up? (Other then that auction site).

Thanks
 
I'll swap you a split-image/micro prism for your zone focus screen. Send a PM if you are interested.
 
1-3 is the split image / matte area screen found in oldest OM-1. The 1-13 has split image, surrounded by micro-prism collar and matte. The 1-14 is like 1-13 only with split image at 45 degree angle. I have 1-3, 1-14 new in box and 1-13 as brand new repair part. John
 
What's a "Zone focusing screen", does he mean a Microprism ?

I've been after a 'grid' screen for years for my OM1n. I don't know the code number but if anyones thinking of parting with one........

The one with the grid is the 1-10 (checker-matte), its primarily used for shift lenses. Its also supposed to work well with long telephoto lenses and especially well for macro.

If you're still looking you can PM me about a 1-13 that I'm not using. It has the case, tweezers and Canadian shipping costs.
