Well, it was easy. just place it back in. It's a bit tricky, but nothing really hard. Follow the instructions on focusingscreen.com

I order the Ec-B from focusingscreen for my K-r last weekend, and received it today. Installed it just now and, my goodness! It's like getting a new pair of spectacles. The change from out to in focus is so clear. Really love it. Now I can finally take clear shots with my Pentax-A f1.2

I just read the Focus Screen review on the accessory forum, and I'm a bit hesitant now; I don't want to negatively affect my auto focus with my DA L 18-55 and my DA 55-300 lens. How much do these focusingscreen.com lenses negatively affect the auto-focus?

Yeah, even when focused the red lights don't come on.

So other than Katz-eye, what are some good brands?
There's some shops on eBay that sell them for $25, and some that sell at the Katz-eye price. Are they reliable?
Is a horizontal focus 'marker' (sorry, don't know the term) better or worse than a 45deg marker?

I've been interested in getting one of these for my Pentax-A f1.2. Would installing this require removal of the current viewfinder screen or can I just add it on?
The Katz-Eyes websites isn't take any orders currently.

Yeah, I don't have any 'issues' with it, I just find it annoying. I guess it's my OCD perfectionist screaming

Hmm if I went to a Pentax authorised technician could I have this under warranty?

Doesn't work. I tried to blow inside with the mirror down but the dust is still there. I'm just afraid it might be dust that got in from the eye diopler adjustment area.

My sensor is clean, as confirmed by the dust alert and my photos. But when I look into the viewfinder, there's small particles and even a tiny piece of hair. Is there any way I can clean it easily?

Aye. That's a nice little bonus that I found really thoughtful from Pentax

I'm not sure if you know this, but the shots with the 'smoke' coming out of the towers is actually water vapour. I agree with the flower/plastic one.

Hahah Pentaxor and I are forever pictured in forum history. That said, the band of focus is really apparent. It's tiny!

Just got the A lens today! Took some really crappy first shots. Apologies in advanced for my poor photography skills. I will improve! I promise! :D
Here's the best one, wide open, of course:
Now that I've tried it, I must agree, the focus on f1.2 is really really hard to grab.

Where did you get the Cosina? I've not been able to find any Cosina lenses on eBay.

Just wondering. How does the Asahi lens compare to the Pentax-A?

Thanks for all the help and info guys. I'd really like to get one, I admit, but with the current offers of $650 on eBay, it's a bit steep. What other places can you recommend to search for the 1.2?
