thanks for the cue jp - perfect. my bellows are perishing slightly and soon
i will need to replace them. rather than pay linhof the earth id like to
find an affordable solution. is there perhaps another cheaper system which
takes the same size bellows, or an ingenious way of replacing the core sock?
my ground glass needs a clean, what would be a suitable cleaning agent?
plain soap? i am also not sure that my film plane replaces the ground -
glass plane exactly when inserted. testing methods? i realise a narrow DOF
and focusing on newspaper might be the way, but how would  tweak the lens
plane, and set it, when i find an abberation?
