As bright as the standard screen is, I'm not sure the extra $100 for the Ultra Brilliant is really necessary for most applications or cameras. No problems with any lens ranging from 75-300mm... and most images can still be easily seen well enough in most lenses for focus with the lens stopped down to f32. For the first time in two years I've been able to fully utilize the Linhof's pop-out ground glass shade without always having to use a dark cloth.
Expensive maybe, but I categorize the Maxwell Standard Screen the best accessory investment I've made for my Linhof Master Technika.
