thanks! Yes indeed: there are Newton rings. I did these quickly and realized I'd get some rings about halfway through ... but I wanted to capture the whole print, including the borders. Next pass will eschew the border and capture just the image area, as I will have a print mask to overlay should I want to present the image with Polaroid borders in a print format. Still learning this stuff. I tell ya, it's addictive. AND expensive, at $3.50 per exposure. I'll have to look into the that last link mentions. -- Godfrey godfreydigiorgi.posterous.com -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
