I have a Super Graphic that is missing the focusing panel -- the previous owner improvised one by mounting a ground glass in a Polaroid film holder. This is my first LF camera, and so far it's more of a project than a tool. I would like to get a proper replacement for the missing focusing panel, but Super Graphic parts are not so easy to come by... so I have a few questions:
1. Is it possible to use the Graflok focusing panel from a Speed/Crown Graphic in a Super Graphic back? As I understand it, Grafloks are supposed to be "universal" but the Super's revolving back looks very different from the Crown/Speed backs.
2. Has anyone tried replacing an SG back with the back from another manufacturer, like a Cambo or Toyo/Omega?
3. I have seen Fred Lustig's name mentioned on this forum as a Graflex parts/repair guru; is he still active?
Any information appreciated -- Thanks.
