using Daniel Schweinert's pics and tutorials and using his ground glass holder

I had been looking at the HV20 forum for a while and I was inspired by all the images from twoneil's adapter and poked around on Daniel's site for a while. I know you could buy your own but for anybody looking for a weekend DIY...

It really is not that hard to make these things but it is hard to make one really well. I think that is what makes those already made adapters so great is all the time they took to R and D. I mean you could buy one but there is something about making it yourself and then actuallly shooting footage with it.

I have no idea how people actually take their cameras apart and flip the image and things like that but I think if you can make a peanut butter sandwich, change the batteries in a flashlight and order things off the web, it is not that hard to build your own adapter.

Great job, would have really helped me to see someone gluing the gg-holder in, back in Aug 2007.

May I suggest you rename the vimeo title something more specific than 'untitled"?

Working on follow focus using bicycle gears or mouse pad cut up and guitar tuner hooked up to fishing rod or pencil sharpener handle I should rename all my clips though thx bb
