Hi guys,

I'd like to know how difficult it is to install this :

Takes about three minutes. Very easy - just do it carefully, in dust-free place on a table. Take lens out, remove old screen, put in new screen, put lens back. There are instructions and a suitable tool in each focusing screen package.

PS. I have now Ec-B in my Mark II and I like it a lot. Manual focus (even when screen's senter split is not used) is easier. I also have Ec-L which I will try later. Note that screen with grids are designed for full frame - so grid may not be what you expected in 1.3X camera.

OK, thanks Pekka.

I was thinking about that one for the rule of thirds and to have the horizon level...
