A new chemically engineered GG

Tony Relph · June 20th, 2006, 10:36 AM

Blimey, I should of added a few more zeros to the $amount. I don't mind seeing as it is for testing only. If successful I might make the glass available as a separate product. Due to the big response I have had I will limit the amount of testers as they do take time to prepare but for now I dont mind as I want it tested under many conditions.

Does anyone have any preferences as to what would make the ideal housing for the adapter ie: ring sizes, preferred lens mounts etc?

LOL, I was wondering when someone was gonna ask what is substance is. That would be telling. With the Movietube as soon as the patent became available to the public domain everyone has tried to replicate it. If I am to try and make it a commercially available product then the secret recipe must not be known, just like coca cola. But as I said before the glass will be available to buy separately.

Tony and the rest of you, you're really going to dish out £10 to test out a gg that hasn't been tested yet or seen? This guy could make some quick money whilst you guys are 10 pounds short. Not a bet worth on taking. Be wise.

Tony, show us what you got before you sell something..

If you were to read what I said the fee was to cover P+P for testing only, not for profit. $10 dollars was the maximum amount for worldwide postage. UK postage will only probably be between £2 - £3 maximum. Plus I am only going to limit the testers to a maximum of about 10 - 15 people.

As stated, I am awaiting my Sony Z1E. Do not worry, I wont send out testers out until stills and footage is available.

Wayne - I just sent you email via DVinfo.

Wayne Kinney · June 20th, 2006, 04:12 PM

Tony,

It does not seem to be working, i have had trouble with this before.

Please send email to waynekinney@hotmail.com or info@sgpro.co.uk

Tony Relph · June 20th, 2006, 04:15 PM

Wayne - Will do now.

David Delaney · June 20th, 2006, 04:19 PM

I would like to test the GG as well.

Tony Relph · June 20th, 2006, 04:35 PM

Wayne - Sent.

Tony Relph · June 20th, 2006, 04:48 PM

Wayne - Got it?

Tony Relph · June 20th, 2006, 04:53 PM

Wayne,

The measurement that you emailed me - Is that what yours is?

Wayne Kinney · June 20th, 2006, 05:16 PM

Tony,

This is off topic, please email me regarding this.

A family relative has a glass company who laser cuts the glass so glass is easy to obtain. It is specifically used in scientific applications, Its not your day to day glazing or picture frame glass but still cheap.

Email is below.

Thanks for your interest.

Tony.

51.5mm diameter round, and if you can do rectangles, I'd also buy a 25mm X 37.5mm

Actually Thorlabs says to use 50mm optics in their tube, so 50mm instead of 51.5mm (as measured).

Let me know how and where to purchase when you're ready...
