Hi Chris. I used to do all my astrophotography with a Nikon F2 body, type C (astronomy) focusing screen and a waist level viewfinder which had a flip-up 6x magnifying lens. A perfect setup for film photography.
There was an aftermarket focusing screen available called a Beattie Intenscreen, which had a nice bright image, but was impossible to tell if you were in focus-don't bother with it if you are offered one.
