Hi all,
I'm using a Nikon N50 so changing screens is out of the question - although the screen on the N50 is pretty much clear. The camera is not the mechanical shutter type but the battery will last forever because it's made to shoot a bunch of flash pictures so that's not an issue. I can focus well about 80% of the time at prime focus and so far never with eyepiece projection.
Looking at the alternatives, I'm considering either a Stiletto focuser or a Hartman mask of some sort for more precise focusing. I read the online manual on the Stiletto and it seems iffy on eyepiece projection.
Any comments on how to get better focusing without having to resort to opening a camera and placing a knife edge on the rails would be greatly appreciated.
Take Care,
