    The last time I cleaned the fogged glass I used a red-hot pin to extract the plastic caps. Take a sewing pin (or similar metal pin) and heat it up. Be sure to use pliers. It will leave you with a hole in the cap you can use to extract the cap again in the future. Yes, mildly destructive, but...

    We have a BINGO! No Halo in RAW scanned file. Cropped the tugboat area and converted to jpg.....no halo. I must be doing something wrong when I'm prepared the original 400MB file for uploading?

    The viewfinder in the photo above is from Voigtlander. It's since been replaced with my 4x5 sport-finder from Cameradactyl. And although it's not 100% accurate, it will hold me over until the Camerdactyl 6 x17 viewfinder arrives. CUSTOM BUTTER FINDER VIEWFINDER — CAMERADACTYL
