Leica r4 focusing screen
Hi all !
I got a very nice Leica R4 camera, but unfortunately focusing screen has ugly "cleaning" marks. So my questions are : 1. How to clean these marks out ? 2. Where to buy new focusing screen ? 3. How to remove old one and install new one ? Best regards, Iggy.

The R4 is a good camera but it's biggest downfall is the standard screen which is dark and difficult to focus. Throw it out the standard screen and replace it with a current R screen, ie R6, R7. Order one from Adorama, B+H if you cant find a local dealer who can do it for you. It comes with little tweezers and instructions which tell you how to remove/replace the screen in a body. The new screen is much brighter than the original R4 screen. JJ
