Anybody have any suggestions for replacing cracked viewfinder glass in an SP?
Is there any known source for original glass?
Besides stripping a beater?

Get a microscope glass blade from your local medical hardware facility and have it custom cut with a diamond roller so that it fits the Nikon SP viewfinder peculiar shape.

Microscope glass sounds most cost effective.
My understanding is that original glass is extremely, extremely costly. As part of a clean-adjust-lube through CameraQuest two or three years ago, I had broken glass replaced inexpensively with just a piece of cut clear glass. You lose the frosting over the frameline projection window, but I didn't see any significant real-world effect in use.
