I have a Linhof 4x5 with a gridded G G screen.
It has a grid making 10x12 squares.
There is a frame to mark the area of the European 9x12cm negative.
However, I have just bought a 6x7cm (10 on 120) Super Rollex back.
The Linhof being a view camera has no seperate viewfinder so I must be able to visualise what will go on the 6x7cm negative with the aid of the grid squares.
I can mark the screen of my Graphic accordingly.
Who knows, maybe i'll even get around to re-setting the Kalart Rangefider.
How do you manage with a 4x5 Graphic & roll-back?

I have various grid templates available for download on my website, that you can lay your screen, ground side up and use a straight edge to mark your pattern with a fine point pencil, or they can be printed out on transparancy sheets, cut and overlay the glass with the pattern you want to use.

Have fun, they are free.
