Which i think will be interesting if its a Tstop since theres some controversy over the 85 1.2 "Fstop", if i can rent one at a reasonable price i would be curious to try it out. Feel free to call me Case.

Can you do something similar with the other "normal" Rotalux Octas? Of course you can. You just don't get quite the same punch. It's a little less contrasty. Robert

I have an opaque white, a semiclear or frosted, a silver and a gold... TMR Design wrote in post #13382956 I have to apologize for contributing to the problem, Case. I have always called the opaque white the white translucent and that may or may not be throwing some folks off. That's the deflector that is included with many of the Rotalux lightboxes.
