Split focus screen for manual focus on Canon 40D
Does anyone know IF and where you can get a split circle focus screen for a Canon 40D.
It sounds like a mad idea but I always liked the one in my old FED4L which I still own. ![]() I want a better was of manual focusing with my new Kenko Teleconvertor and 100-400. Although there's a dodge to get the teleconvertor to work on autofocus it's a bit hit and miss

I'm pretty sure they are still available, but I think they were phased out as they were not very good transmitting light with lenses slower than around f2.8.
