HELP with CFV 50c screen gridline size

[Neil Williams]

Guys
I've borrowed a CFV50C from my mate but he forgot to give me the screen for my 503CW and I keep chopping of heads. My question is what size is the 1x1 grid as I want to mark it on my original screen???
Any help would be much appreciated

On mine it measures 3.5cm square.

You can purchase the exact mask for the CFV50c here: https://digitaltransitions.com/product-category/accessories/viewfinder-masks/ just use the one marked for the IQ250 that uses the same sensor.

..........what I ended up doing is draw a 35mm square in the existing focus screen with a fine nib red permanent marker.......warmed it up with my old ladies hair dryer and "Bobs your Uncle" it works perfect.
If after my india trip I decide to go out and buy a Hasselblad CFV-50c for myself then it will come with the correct screen, if not then I will just get some heli-fuel or the likes and remove the red pen marks.
Thanks guys

Just bought one of these for my 501C and CFV 50C. A very useful recommendation, thanks, as the CFV focus screens are quite rare and very expensive, it seems.

You can purchase a current Hasselblad focusing screen that has the CFV 50C/CFV II 50C sensor format marked by solid lines on the screen along with dashed lines indicating a square crop from the sensor. It has split-image and micro prism focusing aids. Hasselblad US catalog number is H-3042264. Price new is $260.

The fine folks at Capture Integration can likely supply this for you. https://www.captureintegration.com/hasselblad-cfv-ii
