Re: Old plates

The Agfa is probably good. The PFG probably not. Check out some links to the wiki here written by Jeff Blyth about reviving them, plus there was a Facebook discussion on some PFG revival recently. And there is the seminal paper on reviving plates here: http://edweslystudio.com/Publications/recycle.p...

Re: Expand laser beam with micoscope objective : which one ?

"please correct me if I'm wrong : pinhole reduces laser power a lot" At least 90% passes through if you work at it. Get the pinhole! "maybe a 100x this time but when I look for such things on eBay I can't choose." Good luck finding one! A lens from a CD or DVD player would probab...

Re: Which chemistry for "HOLOFILM 250 PAR" from Applied Holographics PLC ?

The holos of the waffle iron were pretty much what you would want, see the pictures earlier in the thread. Whether or not the magic came from the pulsed laser, not sure, as I haven't tested the film in single beam reflection mode with a CW laser. But I did shoot a transmission holo with it, and thou...
