Hello owners of Mamiya RB67 Pro.
Can anybody tell me if the focusing screen Microprism is better than a
Horizontal Split?
Have problems with focusing.
Thank you in advance.

Jean--
I have the horizontal split screen and find it easy to use and accurate,
particularly if you can find a vertical plane in the scene on which to
focus--a door frame, a tree trunk, or the lapel on a jacket, whatever.
Almost always there is such a plane to be found that coincides with or at
least represents the subject of your photograph. I once had a focussing
screen with a microprism ring around a central split-image, and found I
ALWAYS relied on the split-image. Hope this helps.
