I need to replace ground glass on Horseman L45 and I'm not into spending the money on original as camera just cost too little and won't see regular use anyways.

etone - anyone has tried this, usable with f8.0 lenses ?

While at it, looking to get a new focusing loupe. Have the Toyo which works OK, but still. How about this one e-tone ?

I bought the etone gg and fresnel for my Toho, and it’s quite bright. It’s two pieces—one piece is plastic/acrylic and has the ground surface on one side and fresnel on the other. The second piece is clear glass that goes over the acrylic to protect it.

In issue I found is the item is larger than the specs listed in the eBay auction, so I reduced the size with some 220 sandpaper.

A +1 on the etone lupe. I have had one for years and am happy with it. Also have the etone gg and fresnel for a Linhof, happy with the them as well.
