Focus screens

Frankly, Bevb, I wouldn't bother with replacement focusing screens. I'll wager you didn't even think you needed one until you discovered that Canon offered different versions. Save your money and invest it into something that will enable you to get better images.

Thats exactly what i thought they might of done, help in some way, but looking into them more, and that was on the American Canon site! they explained alot more details, and i think if your going to use manual mode majority of the time then they may be a help, but i dont, so i wont.

Anyrate, every spare penny is going towards the Canon 500mm lense at the moment!

The only time I changed a screen was when I was playing with
macro photography and used a viewfinder magnifier (ground
and mounted for me by the local optician!) the plain
ground glass screen became too prominent and was changed
for a different type (what I do not remember)
