I been thinking about the EE-S screen cause I just hate having to focus then re compose. With the rokker x its gonna be extremely hard to hit focus at 1.2

And if that doesn't work, you may need to shim your Ee-S focusing screen. Had to do it to mine when I had my 5D...couldn't get a sharp image wide open, either with the 58/1.2 Rokkor or 50/1.4 Takumar...looked sharp in the VF, just not sharp once downloaded. Canon sells shims (focus screen washers, in their terminology) for just this purpose. Took a bit of trial and error, but once I had the proper shim in place the missed focuses when wide open went away completely.

I'm trying to determine why the aperture ring doesn't work on this CPC 135mm 2.8

Anyone have experience with 200mm f4.5? I saw one the other day but didn't buy it. I can find info on the f2.8 version, but not the 4.5
