I have just acquired a s/h AS 6x9. The back doesnt have a fresnel and I understood that all recent AS had one factory fitted. Its a later model black version with fully interchangeable parts with the new Field that I have.

Should it have one ? as I am concerned about focus if it is missing.

Thanks

Dave

Dave,
Yes this camera should have a Fresnel installed. Are there 2 pieces in the back frame?
If not you are correct, it was probably removed. Also does the Frame have a letter 'N' stamped on the top or bottom of the frame on the back?
Thanks,
Rod
