Hey, all -
Ok, so I took a couple test shots with the new Graflock 4x5 reducing back. Came out like this:
Hmm. That ain't right. Better check the measurements...
Alright, so I measure from an arbitrary point (the inside surface of the back) to the ground glass and, with 4x5 holder in place, to the film plane in the holder.
Hmm. That ain't right, either...
The two distances differ by about 1/4". Now, I had it in my head that Grafloks set the distance between the film plane and the ground glass to be equal, thus making it easier to use one for a cobbled reducing back. The Graflok is one I picked up used; the insert and ground glass are off of my Super Speed Graphic.
Anyone have an idea why I'm not getting agreement between the two focusing planes? Is there a way to adjust ground glass height on a Graflok back? Or is the insert I have specific to my Super Speed, necessitating another purchase?
Thanks for any help.
Scott
