The Nikon EM is a delightfully designed camera, but the prism is inferior to that of other Nikons, with reduced brightness and frequent centerline distortion related to poorly applied reflective coating.

My question is: do the prisms in the FE, FM, FE2, FM2 cameras have the same dimensions as the EM prism so that they could be swapped in?
