Focus on focusing - help me pls!!!

Hi,

I have now 5DmkII + 85mmf1.4ZE and 50mm f1.4ZE. allways in trouble wiht focus with unreliable focus confirmation and EG-S focusing screen. I would like to update to 5DmkIII + 35mm f1.4 (a wonderful lens from what I read), BUT....
I canno change focusing screen on 5DmkIII and I'm not able to find someone to fit a split scren focusing screen on it at least in Italy.
My question: is AF confirmation of the new mkIII reliable to focus at h1.4?
I would prefere a split screen. Should I sell everything and get ZF2 + D800 where I can put a splitscreen??? I don't want to invest further on ZE if in the future Canon boycott them with fix focusing screens. Nikon has to mantain AI-S compatibility alive....

I'm very confused, I know only that I want to shoot lovely Zeiss render lenses in the proper way... Body camera will not be so important, but must be full frame...

Thank you, guys!!!

Just per info for other users. Item solved. I bought 5DmkIII becuse after sever trials I found out that the new AF confirmation (at least the central sensor) is precise enough for MF also for f1.4 wide open.

Bye, Devid
