I am sure it isn't a new idea, but I could not find any specific data in the archive.

It is time to upgrade my DS with split-image/raster focussing screen ripped from an older (Pentax) body.

There are some places on the Net offering s/i screens, but:
1. the cost is more than 10 donor manual bodies
2. they do not have stock (if ever had)

Apart from necessary cutting/filing to the smaller size (25x17.5mm) the only problem is thickness - does anyone have some info on thickness of the screens in some cheap (Pentax or not) bodies? I read in the archive that all screens in Pentax AF bodies are the same size - does "AF" include digital?

The original screen in DS is about 1.3mm thick (1/200" would be a standard size?) - yes, I know I need a better measurement tool :)


thanks
