Does anyone have a recommendation for a commercially available ground glass protector for an Arca Swiss 8x10? No doubt I could cobble one together, but my shop is a mess right now (along with the rest of my house...), and I'd prefer to just buy one. I talked to Jeff at Badger, and he said the one he sells (Canham?) does not work real well on the Arca.

Thanks

Bob,
I actually find my Canham GG protector works very well with my Arca 8x10 (f-metric).
I leave the lens on the camera while collapsed in the bag and I like how the GG and fresnel are protected from both sides.

Dan,

Thanks, that's good to know. I'll check out the Canham.

Keith's GG protector is excellent and covers both sides of glass if you sometimes change to a smaller format on the camera.
Reasonably priced as well.

The Canham it is then. Maybe the one Jeff was referring to was not a Canham.
