Not sure but I've heard of people using paper as temporary solutions. Once you find the correct thickness required you could probably have it laser cut for you in a local metal shop.

My focusingscreen.com S-Type screen came with a couple shims and a couple tools. What does the Katzeye come with?

Edit: so who's that phone number ?

The tamron 70-200 2.8 is much better for bokeh and is tack sharp. On this focal range the 55-300 really doesn't compare.
You must be trying to compare it to the 70-300 from sigma and tamron ?

Here's a couple shots I took yesterday with my brand new 55-300

Doh, must be FishEye. I actually own that same lens, I just assumed you used something to get even closer. This must have been quite a large critter nonetheless.

Thanks for sharing

edit: need more speed

Pardon the noobness but what's this FE you talk of ?
Some extension tube?

Wow I had a complete misunderstanding of how that thing worked. Thanks for coming back at me on this one.

But what happens to the dust the artic butterflies shoots to the sides?
Interesting debate, Guess I'll have to look into it.

Just a quick hello from Leixlip near Dublin

Hi there,

I'm a french expat near Dublin and I've been keen on photography for 3 or 4 years now. After getting a great P&S I finally took the plunge late last year and bought a dSLR.
I chose a K-5 and am already victim of aggravated LBA.

I only discovered PentaxUser.co.uk this week and the community seems a lot friendlier that in another place I know.

Anyway I'm glad I found this place
So, Hi, and see you around!

Before investing in an Artic Butterfly I'd probably consider a simple rocket blower.
