Kodacolor

Another absence I'm afraid- been cataloguing like mad.

I tried to make a Kodacolor filter today. I had a 2" round of perspex and coloured gels cut to at least roughly the right specifications. Unfortunately when I tested it I met with abject failure (as I predicted in my post below!) I'm guessing it's a question of scale- clearly the projector the system was designed to work with had a smaller lens diameter and this is quite critical. I now need to find out exactly which projector is required (a Kodascope of some kind I believe, but is it the A or the B?! - Fortunately I know who to ask) and try again. Luckily I have access to both models but whether they work or not... Probably not because:

Nothing's ever f**king easy
