    homemade colorful lensboard

    My wife was painting some outdoor furniture. I liked the color. I was in the process of making lensboard. So here's a 8.75" verito in a bright teal home made board. Should go well with my bright red mounted wollaston meniscus.

    Color-coded lens boards. Could be a new trend!

    I do like red; especially shiny red like that lensboard; reminds me of a special car I no longer have.

    Well I just had a quart of paint eye matched to the grey on a B&J Commercial View 5x7 for some lens boards I made. Now I'm thinking I should have had mixed to match the red bellows, that would have been really cool, oh well, maybe next time. jp498, ice blue btw, looks great on your camera & Joe the red looks good on your camera too.
