...You could also confirm this by focusing on a box about 1m away from the camera with the split screen and then moving the box 50mm backwards/forwards and it will probably still line up indicating that it's still in focus according to the split screen.
I've been using split screen focussing since I got my ME Super in 1982 and have never had a problem with it. Since fitting the Katzeye in my K20D my ability to use older MF lenses has been transformed and I'd never go without a split screen again on my dSLRs. I can (and do) focus on the plain glass when I have to, especially on macro shots, but for general day to day photography the split screen makes a hell of a difference to me.
Obviously, with my Yashica Mat 124G and my Horseman I rely on just the ground glass (although in the case of the Horseman I also use a Pentax loup). The rangefinder on my FED2 is excellent. For my Lubitel 2, focussing? what focussing?
Best wishes, Kris.
