Re: [APML] First Schmidt Shot



Thanks for the encouraging responses. If you a going to dream dream BIG ( filters that won’t change focus ) . I was told by another Schmidt owner that his film holder worked with or without filters.
 
It will "work", yes.  There will be an image.  But it won't be as sharp as it should be.
 
From what I understand the focus change is the same with the tri color wratten gel filters.
 
Yes, all the Wratten gel filters change the focus the same ammount.
 
I hope the change would be able to be taken care by shimming the film holder toward the corrector. I HOPE, anyone with both holders know which way to go?
 
<I think> you have to shim it toward the mirror, but I have not verified this with my own camera yet.
