I have recently purchased a Minolta X-700 for my son. I noticed that it had a large piece of dust on the top side of the focussing screen. I removed, cleaned and returned the screen, which was akin to delicate brain surgery. However I'm not sure whether I replaced the screen the correct way up. Can anyone tell me whether the fresnel side of the screen is the side that faces the mirror or the is it the clear side? By facing the mirror I mean the side that you could touch with a brush or similar once it is installed, ie. the underside.

I believe it's rough side down... but I'll check mine when I get home tonight.
