David,
    Thanks for the quick reply.
The E-330 doesn't really have have IS, selecting the function
just kicks up the ISO a bit, so that isn't an issue.
    The Katz Eye mod replaces the screen with a microprism/split-image
screen, patterned after the Nikon type "F" screen, at a pretty
low cost.
Cheers,
