So I am out for my first trial of my new to me super graphic. I wanted to examine the gg with my loupe. The hood seems to be a pressed in frame thingy ??? This is not like my Crown. I get my car key out and pry it out. Everything comes lose, I end up with frame and gg and fesnel coming out. Everything comes apart. Yikes. I push the frame back and break the ground glass. Not a good start. Something is wrong with this picture. After getting home and carefully disassembling the back it appears there were clips at one time on sides of the ground glass. I have 4 empty countersunk holes on the short sides of ground glass. I assume the previous owner removed the clips that held the whole thing together with the hood frame. How is this supposed to work? I think the order of things is smooth side of fresnel toward lens, bumpy side toward the gg with the rough side of gg pointed toward the fresnel and then all clipped down. The hood is then pushed/clipped into the frame???? Anyone know where I can get the clips and screws?
Thanks. K Fry
