canon focusing screen?

->> Does canon have focusing screens? I think that is what they are called. I have a bunch of manual focus lenses that i used on my nikon F2 - the nikon had 2 half circles that would come together when it was in focus. does canon have something like that for digital? I am using an adapter to connect the nikon lenses to the canon body and it works really well. They would be really useful if i could see when it was in focus.

thank you, I hope i am making sense.

->> Dann, they have them for most bodies. Go to one of the sponsor or your favorite online supplier and search on canon focusing screen. You should find a pretty diverse selection.
