I am looking for the type of focusing screen that has the circle in the middle with the diamond shapes until it achieves focus its really blurred.

If anyone knows what i'm talking about and can help me out I would appreciate it.

AFAIK Canon doesnt make one. You have to look third party and they are upwards or $130. Cant think of the company name right now, but Im sure someone here will know and will post it.

Ouch on their prices. I'd like one, but not for that much.

Katz Eye Optics and Haoda make 3rd party focus screens for Canon. Kind of pricey though.
