Description
The EOS 5D is compatible with Ee series focus screens.
Solution
The EOS 5D is compatible with Ee series focus screens.
Ee series focus screens include:
| Ee-A: Precision Matte |
Replacement standard focus screen exclusively for the EOS 5D. Matte surface with nine AF points etched into the screen. For general photography with all lenses. |
| Ee-D: Precision Matte with Grid Lines |
Similar to standard Ee-A screen for the EOS 5D, but with horizontal and vertical lines for precise subject placement or alignment. Overall matter surface gives viewing and focusing very similar to standard Ee-A screen. EOS 5D must be set to Custom Function 00-1 for accurate exposure metering. |
| Ee-S: Super-Precision Matte |
An all-matte focus screen for the EOS 5D with finer microlens structure than the standard screens. Out-of-focus areas show more vividly than with Ee-A and Ee-D screens. It's ideally suited for use with f/2.8 and faster lenses, especially for manual focusing. EOS 5D must be set to Custom Function 00-2 for accurate exposure metering. |
| Ee: Crop Lines |
Ideal for the portrait and wedding photographer, the set "Crop Lines" includes two focus screens - one with 4x5 (or 8x10) crop lines etched on the screen, and a second screen with lines for square composition. All exposure metering can be performed normally in camera, and red focus point illumination remains fully active.
The other set, "Black Mask," has an opaque black mask outside the picture area. One screen of the set shows the area for 4x5 (or 8x10) cropping, the other shows the area for square cropping. Partial or spot metering is recommended for these screens. E-TTL II flash exposure will definitely require significant compensation. FEL (Flash Exposure Lock) in conjunction with either partial or spot metering is recommended.
