Where can I buy a replacement sheet? I hope I didn't overlook this in the topics!

Thanks.

I got one from Steve Hopf that I'm very happy with. You'll find other folks recommending his GG too.

Thanks Steve! I don't see any listed for 820, do I just email him about this size?

Yes. You'll need to measure the actual GG to the nearest millimeter, make sure the corners are clipped if you have a corner rebate in the frame that won't accommodate square corners. You can get gridded or plain.

Personally I like a grid and a good corner clip so you can see what the lens iris is doing, especially on ULF.

BTW, Steve makes a custom wooden box, at least for large sizes, so shipping is relatively expensive (but the best I've seen). My advice would to be consider a spare or to outfit other cameras, especially smaller ones, at the same time.

Cheers, Steve
