Nikon F2 focusing screen question

[martin lyon]

Hello
Im new to the forum and I've been dealing with an issue regarding my F2 focus screen.
For the F2, Nikon made several models of focusing screens.

I recently lost my focus screen. When I went to the camera shop (in Paris) to buy a new one they only had de G4 model.
As you can see below, taken from mir.com I found out the G4 was specially made for 300mm lens.

I own a 50mm lens and my question is if by using the G4 focus screen with my lens, will it make my photos be out of focus?

Thanks!

Type G (G1, G2, G3, G4)
Nikon description: Clear Fresnel field with extra-bright 12mm-diameter microprism focussing spot for use in poor light. Four models correspond to lenses with different focal lengths:

• G1 for fisheye
• G2 for wideangles
• G3 for 50f/1.2 and 300f/2.8
• G4 for 300f/2.8

The microprism spot is optimized for the longer/slower lenses - which often caused a black-out with the K and J type screens. I suspect that if you can see the image, you should be fine. The surrounding fresnel screen should be usable.

This is one of the few screens that I do not have.

Try Ebay for a better suited screen.
