I've got a KatzEye screen in my K20. Expensive, but very bright and clear, though since changing it I've never managed to entirely eliminate dust from the viewer.
K5IIs, K10D & ME Super with FA24-90, DA16-85, DA55-300, misc old primes; Olympus EM10 & Panasonic LX15.

Having upgraded to a Pentax Kx from the older Pentax SLRs, I find that the manual focus on the K-x is a real pain in the butt! Thinking of selling and getting a Pentax dSLR with a split screen, that is of course if there is one available. Can anyone point me to the right buy, please?
Love the high ISO on the K-x but would rather have a decent focusing screen, am I alone in this quest?
Thanks in advance for any help.
