Imogen Heap is the singer of Frou Frou, so you were right! :)

Your footage is some of the sharpest and cleanest I have ever seen! I would love to see the rig you are using?

Also, your Artsmell website does not seem to be working...

Juro Stehlik · August 26th, 2006, 08:43 AM

I agree with David. Perfect job Ettore! Is it possible, that you write some details about your adapter or post some photos?

How did you make your ground glass? With Sillicone Carbide? What number? Thanks a lot.

Frank Hool · August 27th, 2006, 02:35 AM

Ettore, outstanding! How big image plane You are using?

Ciao!

Ettore, that is the best footage from a DIY adapter I have ever seen. I mean in my eyes the G35 is the best around. Period. But your footage has just beaten it.

I think all you guys out there who are making adapters(sgpro, brevis etc, )takes some notes and tips so you can deliver us a picture quality of this magnitude!

Well done. I'd even buy one from you Ettore.

Toenis Liivamaegi · September 1st, 2006, 08:15 AM

Whoa, that`s sharp from edge to edge.
It`s a good thing when adaptor like this is not universal but dedicated to one camera model.

I wonder if there`s some sharpening applied in post?

Ettore, am i understanding right from your images, that you are using +7 achromat and +10 macro simultaneously?

Rich Hibner · October 1st, 2006, 01:05 AM

2 questions. 1). Why no more Nivea? I thought it was a big part of your design. 2). You put "Sandblasted ?" Did you just put a 320 grit sand paper and sand it down yourself?
