If i remember i will try to get an outdoor photo of the lantern hung a few feet over a table. A trick i do for these situations with lanterns is place a white paper plate over the top as a “hat” hood reflector which really increases the down reflection of light.
I really need to get in on this, please add me to the list for 1 pc.
Great work DBSAR, thanks for all the time and effort you’re putting in on this!
Don’t know why I’ve ignored this for so long but I really like the way it’s evolving.
The standard Q8 tail cap metal is to thin, i had to add a 1/8” thick aluminum plate inside the tail cap using JB-weld to make it thick enough to thread it so it can hold onto the tripod mounts.
What I am planning on doing in the interest list going forward is providing it to DBSAR sorted alphabetically by user name, so you can easily look in the first post and see where you stand. This would be updated every so often, maybe twice a month, or more often if folks want. It is pretty easy to do for me, the magic of a spreadsheet. I’ll add a link to it below, but it seemed like for some reason several folks are having problems seeing the numerically ordered interest list, so don’t be surprised if you have problems with this one as well. Just ask for permission to see it if you need to.
I’ll continue to keep up the order of interest document which I have been linking to for the past week or so as soon as people request to be added, but will update the listing in the spreadsheet sorted by peoples name just periodically, like every other week or so (as mentioned above). Hopefully this helps folks know where they stand in terms of how many lanterns they have showed interest in to date.
