Hello All,
I sandblasted a couple pc's of glass at work today and installed it in the 8x10
right away. The image is a lot brighter as compared to the acid etched glass that
I had in it. The only thing that is throwing me off is the sandblasted glass has a
more textured surface that shows when you look at the glass with a loupe.
Shouldn't be a problem because the image is so much brighter.

I had trouble seeing the image while stopped down to f45 on the acid glass. I am
able to see the image much better on the sandblasted glass while stopped down. I
can even see the image without the focusing cloth while at f45. My wife spotted
the difference as soon as she looked at the glass.

Needless to say I am going to stay with the sandblasted glass, can't wait to do a
little practising with the new glass.
