Not sure where you're reading. I read, "The EOS 20D's viewfinder is clear
and bright with a high quality eyepiece lens (very little corner
distortion). It has an all new 'Precision Matte' focusing screen which is
supposed to have a more neutral color response and provide better manual
focus with faster lenses thanks to a steeper change in blur at the focus
point (in use I have to agree, it's a noticeable improvement over the 10D
which I never considered 'bad')."
