    Default Getting the perfect colour match and alignment

    OK ive been spending alot of time getting the perfect alignment and perfect colour match and i thnk ive done it.

    i spent 20mins getting perfect alignment, took my laser for a car ride to a village hall and it knocked the alignment out.

    so did some tweaking - tighened a few things up spent 30mins alignment two lasers haha and this is the result.

    for a perfect colour match i have to turn my blue down by 10-15%

    ok this is both lasers on full, but turned down to 50% if that makes sense. as you can see a pretty good red, blue pink/purple




    this is both lasers on 100% and the match isnt so good


    now red on 100% and blue on 90%, the red over lap is just the frames





    these are just the red and blue set on different power levels

    You have to align your optics to ~20meters. @ 20 meters your present alignment will be very off.
    I hired an Italian guy to do my wires. Now they look like spaghetti!

    They are sure purdy...

    Speaking of alignment. I was checking the near field and taking a few pictures and saw this freaky eye in one of my shots...



    Turns out it is just the reflection of the red off a screw on the green... I did a double take when I saw it on the LCD screen on the camera. That's good near field alignment though.



    Pretty good far also.



    Hey Andy. Will Moncha do analog? It'd be nice to see how deep you can get your purple.
