DIY Achromat tutorial made from binocular
Hi guys,
after so many people had read my wax-gg tutorial I promised I will post some new tuts here. Maybe someone needs a cheap achromatic diopter to save some cash for his first 35mm adapter. Then have a look here: Very easy to build in 2 steps! http://www.jetsetmodels.info/pics/achromat_tutorial.pdf Daniel |

Do you know of a tubing that will keep the achromat together? Last edited by David Delaney; November 16th, 2006 at 06:09 PM. |

Binocular to flip image?
Has anyone considered using half of a set of binoculars to flip their image for their adapter? I don't know if it's possible. It was just a thought...

Are all binocular front lenses achromat? And do I understand correctly that distance between macro/acromat to gg and camcorder lens does not matter?

Chris.
Economically priced binoculars with porroprisms are generally too small to pass a movie-frame sized image without bits and pieces of the optical path getting in the way of the image. |
