I have a Crown Graphic with a Graphflok back. I need a new piece of ground glass for the focusing plane. Does anyone know where I can get one. I wouldn't mind getting the fresnel film for the glass too. Haven't seen much on Ebay. Thanks

Just remember that if your camera didn't have the fresnel to start with you'lll have to modify the fresnel to make it fit.

Pacemakers with fresnels have a slightly different frame around the ground glass that allows fo r the thickness of the fresnel.

The workaround is to cut the fresnell down so it doesn't contact the frame, then attach it to the ground glass itself at the corners with adhesive.
