Fantastic idea... Do the mirrors create little spots of light, or does the light diffuse enough not to be noticed? I imagine that there would be “hot spots” from the mirrors... I bet you get a more diffused light from the aluminum foil idea... Both (...) (23 years ago, 16-Aug-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.off-topic.geek)

It's amazing how much physics and math I have forgotten, so let me simply note that the focus of the camera isn't going to change the proportions of the objects. The focal length will. The perspective will change as your lens measurement changes (in (...) (23 years ago, 14-Aug-01, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
