Nice! About 15 years ago friend of mine found a good condition rolleicord III on an auction site, when she got the camera it had a dark and old focusing screen that made it annoying to use so she got a replacement Rick Oleson focusing screen that made things much easier to focus and use and I remember she saying that she had to adjust something so that the camera would focus correctly! Sometime later I got the camera from her and it has been a good friend to me since then! I also have my father's Yashica mat 124G and I see no reason to replace that focusing screen as it's nice and usable!
Just sent my 66 to Mr Klinkhamer! Thinking of getting a better screen for it when it comes back. However I was just talking to fella on Reddit who said that these screens lack contrast and make it harder to focus overall. How is it in your experience.
Fingers crossed Mr K does as great work for you as he did for me. :) I've read of a few people preferring "worse" screens that they find have higher local contrast, across a few systems. I can't say I've ever had the chance to test a side by side like that so I can't really speak to that.
