    Have I missed smth.? What with wisner.com?

    Hello!

    I have broken ground glass on my Wisner 5x7 recently and decided to buy it at wisner.com, but there is only UNDER CONSTRUCTION page.... What has happened to Wisner? Where to buy new original accesories? Does anyone know?

    Mike.

    They don't seem to be around anymore. You can get anything you need for a Wisner from Richard Ritter. www.lg4mat.net

    Thank You for links and ideas...

    Which decision is better GG or GG+Fresnell lens? Or I can ask in other way - what will I loose with Fresnell?

    The image in your ground glass will not be as bright without the fresnell, but I think focusing is easier with out it. Try just the gg first, and add the fresnell if you think you need it.
