I had my ground glass on my Graflokk back apart to clean it and want to double check the orientation of the frsted side of the ground glass. Does it point towards the lens or the fresnel scree?
Thanks

The frosted side goes toward the lens. The smooth side faces out from the back of the camera.

The smooth side of the ektalite screen goes toward the lens and is the first in the frame. Next the ground glass goes in ground side first. Install retainer clips and enjoy.
