Pentax AF Divided Matte LL-80

Just received the Pentax AF Divided Matte LL-80 for the K10D. Very nice for shooting landscapes where a perfect horizon may be desirable. It's nice that the K10D has this provision.

Hi, Ben. What is this matte thing? How is it applied to landscape shots?

Would you mind to post an image of it?

I would love to hunt down this accessary as well ...

... are all matte, not clear (simplistic aid for MF). The only difference from standard one is the grid lines which vastly help with horizon alignment :-)
