Focusing screen and viewfinder image
The 503CW/503CWD is fitted with an Acute-Matte D focusing screen for unrivalled bright-
ness and sharpness. The markings on the screen indicate the format of the sensor in the
case of the 503CWD for correct composition with digital capture. The screen can easily
be exchanged for others specially designed for various applications (see “Changing the
focusing screen”).
Built-in magnifier 4
The magnifier flips up into the viewing position when the oval button inside the lid is
moved to the right, as in the illustration. To fold the magnifier down simply press it back
down towards the lid until it locks into place. It can easily be exchanged to suit individual
eyesight (see “Changing the magnifier”).
