I use the b226 and p235d models; mostly the b226 because of the nice 
grid. I can manually focus a bit better with the 226 than with the 
standard Canon screen, but if I'm shooting in very low light with a 
fast lens, I use the p235d screen. It's great (not as good as some of 
the Leica viewfinders, but still quite good) and manual focussing is 
as good as it used to be just before autofocus killed the viewfinders.

Focus is dead on, and changing the screens quite easy; about as good 
as on any fixed prism camera.
