<p>I find that the 4-way split image focusing screen gives me better focus (Focusing Screen L for AE-1 Program). However, I have 3 Canon A-1s and I like them a lot. </p>

<p>I know that there were replacement screens for the Canon A-1 but unlike the AE-1P screens they were not user replaceable. My questions are:</p>

<p>1) Can the AE-1P focusing screen be installed in a Canon A-1?<br>

2) If so, are there instructions available for user-servicing the A-1 screen?</p>

<p>Thanks Ranier. I think that is probably the universal frustration -- experience is of course a very effective cure, but I was thinking in terms of ways in which one could maximize the value of an hour spent towards getting better. I know that digital photography has accelerated my learning, since I'm able to see what I did wrong immediately -- I was thinking along these lines.<br>

Does there need to be an new type of camera? Does there need to be an new method of learning photography? Does there need to be a new type of mechanism to get feedback on one's photos? Etc.</p>

<p>What is your biggest frustration in photography?</p>

<p>What tool would help reduce this frustration?</p>
