carol_lee2 Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 <p>I have a Nikon EM and the focusing screen is quite scratched and has black around the corners. What can I do?</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael R Freeman Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 <p>"<em>What can I do?"</em></p> <p>Replace the screen. Which probably means finding a dead EM or FG (they share the same focusing screen) as a donor body.</p> <p>Black around the corners could possibly be cleaned by removing the screen from the camera (it's probably mirror pad foam goop). Scratches on the other hand are permanent.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Gammill Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 <p>If you can find a donor camera and do the work yourself it might pay off. If sending the camera in for servicing, the cost will probably by higher than what you could buy a clean used EM for.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
