Hello. I use a 4X loupe manufactured by Peak. The combination of this loupe and the Bohema ground glass is very good.
However, I don't know how it would look with an 8X loupe.

Regarding this point, I don't find much difference between my former old ground glass and the Bohema glass. I think it's a matter of the lens rather than the ground glass.
gorsescent - Hmm ok thanks! One last question - when using the Bohema Studio Poly/Acrylic ground glass do you notice that it scratches easy with use or does it hold up pretty well? This sounds like a really great product if it doesn't scratch like crazy
That's a good idea! Thanks!!
As mentioned before I too own a 4*5 Bohemia ground glass, it's very nicely made, but it's thicker than your usual ground glass, so look careful if your camera can accommodate a thicker ground glass. I do not use a loupe ( about the single positive thing about me wearing glasses: taking them off I can focus quite well).
I do find the glass coarser than the other glasses I own, perhaps it's a matter of getting used too, on the plus it's quite bright, and as said cannot break..
good luck,
Cor

I installed the ground glass on my camera yesterday. Therefore, it's too early to tell if the ground glass scratches easily.
In my experience, the only hard material that touches the ground glass is a loupe. As long as you carefully use a loupe, I suppose no problem will occur.
Very tempting having just broken my Yanke gg. They're about the same price, odd that these don't show up on the .co.uk ebay or I might not have gone with Yankee.
You can get them direct from Poland without going through eBay.
