    Focusing/composing graflok back for Cambo Wide 470

    Hello,
    I bought a Cambo Wide 470 with a 6x12 back a finder and no gg.
    Now my primary reason for it is to use shift movements and the finder is fixed.
    Is there a gg back I can readily (and inexpensively) find, or I am better off using a 4x5 film holder and placing the glass inside.
    Am I correct in thinking that I will need it only for framing? I assume that focusing with the helicoid and closing a bit should suffice.
    Thanks

    Any of the Cambo Graflok 4x5 ground glass panels should fit this, no problem.

    Thank you. They seem scarce and expensive, though.
    (unless I'm looking in the wrong places)

    Often a complete Cambo monorail such as SC, SCX, etc, can be has for relatively little money these days. This would give you other parts to possibly sell to offset the outlay.
