I need a brighter screen for my 45a.
Anyone have a suggestion for an affordable replacement screen?

Does your camera back have a Fresnel installed?

No, just regular ground glass....
I was quite happy with what I received from Steve Hopf: http://hopfglass.com/Ultrafine.htm
I was also really happy with the ground glass I got from Steve Hopf. If you can afford it I would definitely go with the borosilicate

Ditto on the borosilicate. These aging eyes really appreciate and can notice the difference. & Steve is a real pleasure to do business with.

How much brighter than the stock screen is the borosilicate?
I'm not able to compare the two but it's honestly the brightest ground glass I've owned (the borosilicate)

I have a Satin Snow 4x5 ground glass, still in the original package.
Do any of our members have an opinion regarding its brightness?

Glad it worked out for you! IMHO it's very much worth the price &, again, Steve is first rate.
