Hello everybody,
I'm using some M lenses on my K3 and my question is: what is the best way to precisely focus manually. Ok, I know using LV and magnification option or viewfinder plus red spots and sound alerts (not every time precise). II'm missing my old K1000's focusing screen system.
Are there any focusing screens for K3 that emulate the old system of matching the upper and lower part of the screen to obtain a perfect focused shot?
Thanks!!

There is a focus confirmation in the viewfinder, but it's not the red dot. It's the green hexagon at the bottom of the screen. When the green is steady, focus has been found. The red dot is only for showing the point the camera is focusing on.
