I'm just wondering if using a fresnel with a reflex viewer will give much advantage on my Technikardan. For wide angle(72mm) lens the corners are little dark when viewing through my reflex viewer.

A Fresnel should help, but with the reflex viewer I can only see clearly the central (6x7 outline marks) portion of the GG screen.

The fresnel is required when using either the Right Angle Reflex Viewer or the Focu/Metering Bellows.

thanks

Bob, do you happen to know what the focal length of the Linhof fresnel is?

Linhof does not specify a focal length for any fresnel they sell.

shame because in the uk a linhof fresnel is £95 (approx $170) and I could get a 300mm lens for about 15$.
