It was herd of more often 4-5 years ago. I don't  think the guy is still in
business. He also made a flip mirror/OAG. The camera has a wide opening that
minimizes vignetting. But it's basically a plastic film holder. I've had one
sitting around 2 or 3 years and have never used it but now that I am doing
so many mosaics I'm looking for a way to help on those dark corners of each
frame. That's the hardest part of the mosaic process; matching the darker
parts of the frame caused by uneven illumination. I'll find a way to measure
this cat and get it parafocal with my Nikon F. I wanted to fix one of my F's
but there's too many gears, springs, and parts that are all connected to
allow any major alteration of the camera mouth and still have shutter
function.
Thanks Jon,
