This screen has no central focusing aid, although Bill does offer screens with a Micro/Split centre spot for the same price. Due to left over budget from the purchase of the camera, I splashed out and bought a Maxwell Hi-Lux Brilliant Matt screen with rule of thirds lines. So I started some detective work, initially made contact with Bill Maxwell through the Maxwell Precision Optics facebook page, and from there entered into email correspondence and a couple of very friendly and helpful telephone conversations with Bill over in the US.

So let’s get going.
