Ah, I see. Damn, I really wish I had known about this earlier. I’ve been using the Linhof Super Screen with the grooves facing the lens. I did, indeed, notice some loss of sharpness on my negatives, but it isn’t anything drastic because I stop down to f/22, usually.
The Linhof fresnel (the one currently available at Linhof Studio in the U.K.) is a little pricey for me, a rather impecunious grad student, at $142.
Do you guys have any recommendations of the current selection of 4x5 ground glass/fresnel replacements on eBay or anywhere else?
I was thinking this:

Or this:

Or this:

Since I have the Linhof Super Screen, do I need a 2-in-1 fresnel/ground glass combo to replace it?
If you guys really think that I should spring for the $142 Linhof brand fresnel, I’ll go for it.
Many thanks! ��
