1st time on DCG Project
Re: 1st time on DCG Project
Im using Canon EF-S 18-55mm as a beam expander.
Re: 1st time on DCG Project
Ummm. This is bad.
Is this because too much dichromate?
Or just my bad coating?

Yup, seems like you put too much dichromate and it crystallised out.Zeta wrote:Yes

Finally some part of an image appears.

But only the lower part of the body appears.
I have a questions.
After finishing coating the plate and wait for 1hr should I put it in refrigerator(in the box) or just store it in the dark?
My plate looks over or under exposed?
Can dcg be over exposed and what it will look like?

Re: 1st time on DCG Project
After coating you should store the plates in a warm dark place to dry for 4-12 hours. You can store in a refrigerator, but it might cause condensation on the plates. They need to be sealed to prevent this.Zeta wrote:Finally some part of an image appears.

Your hologram looks underexposed, overexposure tends to leave a "burned in" effect.

Re: 1st time on DCG Project
In addition to the under-exposed comments, I think the five minutes in the final alcohol bath seems a bit long. Monitor the final bath under normal lighting. If/when an image appears you are just about done.
