A while ago I made this 'redcam' a transparant red box with a lens to be used as a
'afgan-camera,' but with the capability to see the proces in real time happening IN the camera..
I like the idea to make the magic visible and if you like it more simple you can use harman direct positive paper.. but my cam is at the moment made of white transparant plexyglass and red foil taped in it... (it is not nice transparant, a little Matt... :sad: ) does any body know a place where I can buy nice transparant darkroom safe red plexiglas ? to build a camera that works, AND is PRETTY to look at?

Marvelous idea! Should also work good for wet plates.

Just finished a 4x5 wide camera using a MC 65mm f/5.6 Super Angulon in the Schneider helical. The camera has a Graflok back and thank goodness for a fellow Photo member he found me the super hard to find Cambo folding focusing hood.

(PS) my outdated Velvia test shots needed WAYYYYYY more exposure. I gave it an extra 2/3 of a stop and prob could have used at least that much more!!
