Mine arrived from cupog on today and I was excited to see the difference between the stock Rolleicord IIa screen, which is almost dark at any time of the day.

There is an improvement but,

- It does not clip to anything. Rolleicord IIa do not have any such provision to hold the screen in place.
- Fresnel lines are stark and with that it seems it is not easy to see the image on the focus screen.

Do all 3rd party bright screens show stark fresnel lines?

I have paid €17.50 for acceptable condition.

Can you just lay the fresnel screen on top of the focus screen?

Yes, it is possible for all the Rolleicord/flex.
