  Hey all.  Looks like there may be some good news.  In trying to 
research how to hack up an old split-prism focus screen to fit in my 
*ist-DS, I ran across the Katz eye.  They sell them for the Canon and 
Nikon D70's and from the news they're working on Pentax flavored ones as 
well.  Seems a bit pricey, but at least there will be an option for those 
of us that use MF glass and long for easier focus.

Thanks. I had no idea such things existed (also Haoda).

I wonder how hard it is to switch a focusing screen? I read the instructions 
and it seems a bit... delicate.

I must say I am intrigued. I really miss the focusing circle I had on the 
K-1000.

No AF points if one switches. I wonder if it's a fair trade off?
