Rainer,

Thank you for your suggestions.  I added the lens like you suggested:

I decided not to try to model the electronics of the camera to keep the
rendering time down.  I could model the PCB as a simple box, but it is
really a complex shape and modelling it correctly could really slow down
rendering.

Next time I open up my camera, I'll try to measure the PCB and see what I
can do.

Hi Bill,

thanks a lot !
Sorry for beeing such late with answering.

I like your model very much.

I did'nt know that there are such good transparent parts !

I've got some suggestions.
(Please remember I'm new to MLCAD and i don't know the effort of doing what
i'm going to tell you ;-) )

First i miss the PCB in your transparent model.
(That's perhaps too simple, but for example add 3762.dat (Glass for Windows
1x6x5) in dark green ? Okay, it's a little too small, but it's just an idea)

Second i miss the lens. I guess the red LED you use in your model would make
a good job here

Thank you very much, best regards,

Rainer

Bill, nice work ! Perhaps you can model the electronics some times. I noticed that rendering time rises if you put something into the transparent model (or even if you only use a transparent model). What about modeling 2 Versions? One for general (...) (23 years ago, 22-Nov-01, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
