About focusing screen characteristics

Eg-A: Standard Precision Matte

Standard focusing screen that comes with the camera. Provides good viewfinder brightness and enables easy manual focusing.

Eg-D: Precision Matte with grid

This is the Eg-A with a grid. It makes it easier to align horizontal or vertical lines.

Eg-S: Super Precision Matte

Focusing screen which makes manual focusing easier than with the Eg-A. Effective for users who mainly focus manually.

About Super Precision Matte Eg-S and Maximum Lens Aperture

This focusing screen is optimized for f/2.8 and faster lenses.

If the lens is slower than f/2.8, the viewfinder will look darker than with Eg-A.

Even if all the Custom Functions are cleared, this setting will be retained. Since the standard Eg-A focusing screen comes with the camera, C.Fn IV -5-0 is already factory set.

To change the focusing screen, refer to the instructions that come with the focusing screen.

The C.Fn IV -5 setting is not included in the registered camera user settings (p.187).
