Actually, even a bit of tissue paper will do.

I became so frustrated one time trying to get good framing with the 
original Fuji 617 that I scrounged a piece of thin vellum in Canada at 
hotel and made a ground glass screen.  Worked perfectly.  Taped it on 
and used a 35mm lens as a lupe.  Then I could focus and see flare and 
frame perfectly.  their newest version comes with a clip on ground 
glass.
