I use it for ground glass focussing (4x5) and slide viewing. Awesome! Be careful about the screen surface you get. I looked at all of them, glass beads, linticular, & matt, and chose matt. For me it works best. I have a 70x70 Daylite Picture King. It has keystone correction and is very easy to set-up and take down. Jim
