Leica II, 1931
Thanks for the info! I've experimented with clear acrylic glass with a sheet of paper beneath it to get those reflections. The good thing is that you can change the color quite easily by choosing a differently colored paper. Unfortunately, static electricity makes it almost impossible to keep clean of dust. I'm a bit hesitant to using real glass because I don't really have a place to store it safely when not in use :-/ --El Grafo (talk) 11:29, 21 August 2015 (UTC) [reply]
In fact, a very good idea, but I stopped working with acrylic glass, I couldn´t avoid the scratches after a short time of use. This is far more difficult to repair later than dust on a white glass surface. Glass is easy to store, its leaning on the wall. Even my big round one (1 meter). BTW, the handlamp picture ist really good! 100mm prime lens, I love it! --Hubertl 16:37, 21 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Danke für die Blumen! Yes, I really love that lens: Certainly one of the sharpest Pentax lenses available, a joy to focus manually and it didn't even cost me an arm and a leg ;-) --El Grafo (talk) 15:45, 23 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
