Hello I. Zarkov! (it is Igor?) The use of EM grids is not my idea. I got fascinated with it after visiting Chris Patton's pinhole pages. And, since he is from the same institute as I am, initially I thought, he is from the same campus and started communication with him about using the grids, so idea is his. I am attaching a link below about the purchase and price. I don't have any more grids, I got few from Chris and they are installed on my brass plates already. I am using 100uM grid (actually, it is not a grid, it is a single circular hole, as against to our usual 'grid' grids of EM). I tried 75uM that Chris sent me and it was creating too much diffusion (~6 Inch focal length body). I had pasted the link before but here is my link using this grid again along with purchase links: thanks, achal http://photos.yahoo.com/achalpashine (click on pinhole day) http://www.stanford.edu/~cpatton/ems.htm http://www.emsdiasum.com/ems/grids/gilder.html
