Default Graduated filter on TLR- anyone tried it.

Seem to have reasonble success with a polarizer by having two. Thought I
might try holding a graduated filter in front of the viewing lens for
composing the image and then try to hold it in the same place infront the
taking lens when I take the shot.

Any one tried this? Did it work? I'll do a shot without where I definitely
want a shot just to make sure I don't ruin too many shots.

The only problem I see (minor) is that with a couple of
oddball exceptions (and the not-so-odd Mamiya 105 ds) the
viewing lens does not have a depth of field preview which
may or may not be an issue. Lindahl, BTW, made a TLR
version of one of their matte boxes a while back, you
shifted the widget up for viewing and down for taking and
could then use the wedding effects line of focus modifiers.
