Thank you so much Pau for sharing! I already ordered 40mm 50/50 beamsplitter from Surplus Shed (excellent value!) and got in touch with ebay seller Stanton asking if he could custom make 30W dimmable LED illuminator for my scope.

Adapter for EL-Nikkor 50mm f/2.8 N to PN-6 bellows reversed?
Hi there,
I'm trying to figure out what adapter to get to mount EL-Nikkor 50mm f/2.8 N to Nikon PB-6 bellows reversed. I want to make the right purchase and I'm not certain. Please advise.
Thank you!

I rarely saturate more than cameras "Landscape" setting gives. And if I do 10+ in Photoshop at most. Other than that I make sure to just touch the black and white points in levels. Tiny "S" curve, a bit of sharpening and I'm done. But yes, absolutely, I love color. Not sure if you taken a look at my...

Thank you Charles Krebs for 'coaching'. First macro shots.
While waiting for the proper adapter I simply used sticky tape to hold the lens. Seemed to work just fine. First shots with reversed Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II on Nikon PB-6 bellows (fully subtracted). Camera Canon T3i. Thanks again for the help. It is a lot of fun! http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8310/80...
