    fredmiranda.com and go to their buy and sell forum. They pop up on there all the time. One of the members manufactures them and everyone raves about them.

    Those really look nice, but I talked to my local shop today and they won't install one for me! :gun2

    What the heck?

    why?
    did they give a reason?

    it dosen't look too hard on the 20d as a DIY job,a couple of screws etc-instructions come with the screen,but if you arent confident then surely someone else will do it

    I'm looking forward to getting one for the D70. It's tough focusing the MF lenses I have as is.
