bob_salomon Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 <p>Ground glass is always ground, that is what forms the image you focus on, the cover glass is clear glass with or without grids or format markings.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
art_major Posted September 16, 2014 Author Share Posted September 16, 2014 <p>Hi bob,</p> <p>thanks for the reply. I get a clear image just on the Fresnel. so you're saying its just plain glass for the Wista?</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob_salomon Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 <p>Art, no. Wista has three parts:<br> 1: Ground glass<br> 2: Fresnel<br> 3: Cover glass<br> That is how it is shipped from the factory.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
