Michael, Thanks, here are the pics of the backside of my screens, they don't have the indents or shaped edges <br> <br> This is the back of the standard screen with the cross like yours<br> <img src="https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3913/14731838797_a5e0d3e317_z_d.jpg"> <br> <br> This is from the screen with the split screen<br> <img src="https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3925/14731736960_fa54a88e8f_z_d.jpg"> <br> <br> and another pic from a different angle showing it doesn't have the indents / feet /shaped corners etc. <br> <img src="https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3922/14731802978_e63a813e96_z_d.jpg">

The one that I tried did, and I assumed that was the case in general. Let me see if I can borrow another one to compare

Ken, Michael, Thanks for your replies. Here are some more images, I think there are no shims, <img src="https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5576/14915403065_ff7e2d15c1_z_d.jpg"> <img src="https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3858/14915403595_df4b7e5520_z_d.jpg"> <img src="https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5551/14915404225_4fc7cf5554_z_d.jpg"> <br> This is a pic of another focus screen hat fits but has no split screen and so I find it very hard to focus accurately when shooting wide open. Like the split screen on, it has no "feet" <img src="https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5596/14728742719_ea779a54a8_z_d.jpg">

Dear fellow Hasselblad users, Got a 500C a while ago and the I am having a great time with it. The body is from 1971, and has an interchangeable focus screen that is scratched and I would like to replace. <img src="https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5572/14718240368_277761b09d_b_d.jpg"> <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/charlessalomons/14718240368/">https://www.flickr.com/photos/charlessalo mons/14718240368/</a> I tried some other screens from ebay, but they don't fit because the metal holders surrounding the screen have raised feet on the corners which raise them higher. Anybody any idea what part number to look for a new screen (with a split screen in the middle) at reasonable cost ? Many thanks, Charles
