The Artful Bodger does a quick and dirty project, bling free!

<< < (4/4)

John Hill:
Yes John, the Ruskie Foto Snaiper was indeed made my Zenit.

A lot of things that were once impossible, or at least b..... difficult are easier with a digital SLR and extreme telephoto is one of them.  Of course the dud shots dont cost anything, to speak of.  Focus is still a challenge for long lenses because the laws of physics have not yet been amended and they all have extremely shallow depth of field.

John Hill:
The project goes slowly onwards...



.... a cheap laser pointer, short length of tube, 3 screws and a couple of 'elastorator' rings!



  So now we have the laser in a mount with screw adjusters.



A bit of unconventional use of some big g-clamps and a woodworkers' spade bit!



.... results are not too bad!  Thats where the laser will be but there are a few other things to do first.
