: : Does anyone have any suggestions for critical focusing on the
ground glass using a loupe without removing the hood? All the
loupes I've tried are too short!
: I have used an inexpensive little 8X molded plastic Agfa
loupe, supported on a home-made bent-wire handle, since there isn't
much room for fingers inside the hood! RKS
Bill,
RKS's suggestion is right on; I've used the same inexpensive Agfa
8x loupe with excellent results, but one difference---remove the
focussing hood and use a dark cloth!
