I've been playing with old AI/AIS lenses lately, one thing that troubles me is that, some of my shots appear to be, oof. So I decided to do a little research, came up with this thing called "focusing screen". Any idea where I can find this thing? hmm.gif

The Buddhists "9 Deities" festival is coming up soon and I plan to shoot a bit of photos.

I think what you are looking for is a split prism focusing screen? You can purchase it online but it would be quite costly!

I use the nikon focus assist on the bottom left for my manual focusing lenses

Here's a link and list of camera's they provide for! Enjoy shooting manual!

D5100 Kit 18-55 approx  RM1990++
D5100 Body + 18 - 105mm approx RM2500++

The reason why I want to get the focusing screen is because I once played with friend's Leica M2, Nikon F3, got hooked instantly. Now whenever I manually focus and shoot on my dslr, nothing seems sharp unless I auto focus. sad.gif

Manual focusing with a Carl zeiss or a Leica lens is just pure orgasm ^^

That buttery smooth feel at the tip of your fingers ^^
