Christian,

Yes, I have it connected to the bellows.

I've had this objective for some time and had initially forgotten the actual WD measurement; so I measured again = 12mm.

Hi Christian,

When not used for 'contact measuring' the WD for this objective @ 210 is 12mm.

DQE, Thanks for the info :wink: Does your IPS LCD monitor have HDMI input or do you use a HDMI to DVI adapter? I should be able to manually calibrate the Dell with the Spyder ( connecting it to a PC and manually tweaking the B/C, RGB settings via monitor menu) . Those IPS panels look interesting. Cu...

One of the advantages of the pro level monitors are their built in calibration tools. My PC monitors are calibrated with a Spyder 3 pro; but that's because the Spyder is connected to the PC and loads the calibrated profile into the Video Card on startup. An external HDMI monitor connected to a DSLR...

I've noticed there are many smaller monitors out there ranging in price from $39.99 and peaking at about $990.00. Obviously, not all monitors are created equal. Many of the earlier high-end versions and the cheap low-end versions lack an HDMI input. HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) http:/...

HDMI

Just curious about the HDMI output of some recent model cameras and wanted to ask if there are any recomendations/considerations in regard to HDMI enabled monitors. I've seen the expensive pro monitors for use in-the field such as http://smallhd.com/dp1/index.php but I am specifically looking at usi...

LOL! I hope those critters don't mind their rolls as such technical apparatus. I am wondering however if you turn the ram's horns clockwise or counterclockwise to decrease the range. Further, it may be somewhat messy it not downright mean if more than one full rotation is needed. :D :smt119 :smt117...

Hermann,

Is your lense a Rodagon Macro or a Rodagon enlarger lense?

Do you have a picture of the 4/28mm?
