Advice on what green laser to buy (50mW - 100mW)

Yes, that is a nice pic. Did you adjust it somehow? Related camera settings or RAW? I also realized I did not take it as beamshots yet. Only as dots spreaded via lens.

I think I adjusted the brightness and contrast and denoised it. I had it on 10-20 seconds exposure. I took this about 6 months ago. I don't really remember the settings and I deleted the raw from my card.

PS: Something I noticed with the 520nm, the darker it gets, the more noticable the difference is but as long as there is enough light, they will look somewhat similar.

Never mind. Only pic, which I have, is rainbow via mobile and there is difference visible. I'll try to do some artworks with beams, maybe I know what to adjust. I have to reduce red channel on pics where I used 520 nm due high light pollution from sodium lamps, so if I use more red, the difference should appear IMO.

Edit: This makes me to want Optotronics RPL II 532 nm 1.4+ W even more. Thanks for this pic, Vision. Rep+.

I see, well I didn't need to adjust the RGB channels individually in a dark room and since my 520nm is 1.5W+ and it totally overpowers the 532nm.

It was because of 589 nm I used. The light pollution made it look like 593.5 nm laser.

I love the 589nm. It's my favorite wavelength. Getting an actual pointer to where I am is actually quite tricky, which is why I haven't got one yet but soon!

Mine too, that's why I take so many photos with my 589 nm dilda. What about Spartan? It is a good laser for reasonable price and the recent series was known to be multiline when cold. Not sure if it is now as I got it beginning January.
