The Katzeye website lists for *istD, *istDs, *istDs2, *istDL, K100D, K1000D super, K110D and K200D. So these must also be changeable, but by whom I do not know.
They also list for the K10D and K20D on http://www.katzeyeoptics.com/cat--Pentax-DSLRs--cat_pentax.htmlThe Katzeye website lists for *istD, *istDs, *istDs2, *istDL, K100D, K1000D super, K110D and K200D. So these must also be changeable, but by whom I do not know.
K20D uses the same screen as the K10D, by the way.
Changeable by whom? By oneself! Here's that video again: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=YqZCjT-jr1s
Katz Eye screens are expensive but one is very well worth owning if you want to use manual focus lenses, or just have assurance that AF is working.
A statically charged brush is handy for removing dust from focusing screens. There is the electric Arctic Butterfly (that is supposed to be for sensors), or I'm sure you could use a more ordinary (but good quality) camera brush and charge it by rubbing it on something.
