If so, does that mean I can rule out the screen type W....as this is the original AF version fitted as std to all digi bodies?

lots of questions...sorry!
Blimey Joe no quick answer to hand but I will see what I can dig up.

Agree the diagonal is the best option as thats whats in the F3. Also fitted the F3 screen to the F2AS so both were the same.

Most obvious question is if the latest screens from X/Xs are brighter therefore easier for M/F. I use AIs lenses a lot and find the electronic rangefinder good for critical focussing other wise I get by ok just on screen sharpness.

Beattie screens from the old days were about a stop brighter than standard manufacturers jobs I think.
