I have a Kapture Group plate available, but what on earth do you want the ground glass for? Is your body missing it's GG? I may have a spare floating around as one of my bodies has a Brightscreen.

The Hasselblad H-adapter comes with a V-type groundglass in a Fuji GX680 GGplate ( it is thicker than the V adapter and needs adjustment of the viewfinder, therefore the new groundglass). The V adapter does not have the GG adapter.

Now I am glad I use a Contax and not an H! It wouldn't be a problem if I didn't choose the Fuji for my stills and/or painting reproduction, but since the Fuji is the most productive currently and I do have 100% success in its microstep/multishot cupturing, the Contax is great for the rest of it...

correct. the h plate on the 680 requires the additional gg which unfortunately will not allow infinity focus.  I did talk with Keith at kapture group who would like to produce a new updated ver of an h plate should there be interest.  he did mention that a new ver would not require the additional gg

Infinity focus is only missing with the 50mm and maybe the 65mm.
