Prisms in Series

[LewDude]

Seems like the prism shots were popular. I realized I had yet to get out my 2nd, identical, triangular prism. So here are a few with them in 'series'.

I reflected the (almost) re-combined beam off a mirror in one. In another, it's bouncing off a nice piece of glassware I use for lumia and cast a nice background on the rear wall.

Have you got a dove prism or Amici prism. Different types can be fun to try with RGB lasers too.

Great question/suggestion, Paul! I'm going to go down that rabbit hole now and figure that out edmundoptics.com: introduction-to-optical-prisms/

The ones I'm using in these photos are off Amazon, reasonable price for what ya get: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FHEL74C/

Nice prism pics, LewDude! :yh:

Yeah, I've got several kinds of prisms. The 60* prisms are the cheapest you can get anywhere. The Amici prisms are generally much more expensive. The dove prism is just great, as a single rotation gives two rotations of the image. I don't have examples of every prism. I need to fill out my collection. :yh:
