The filter should be within the nodal point of the lense, anything outside of that, and the camera will focus on the dots on the filter, and not the subject. And as for stacking the filters, I would not recommend it.

Mark,
My 14 yr old son who btw w all his saved gifts is buying a nikon d810 w/ 70-200 f4 and 17-35 f2.8. Hmm not bad. Anyway he was asking me about filters and I said I used to like my Harrison diffusion filters. A quick search and your name came up. Hope you are doing good. Been many lifetimes since Homer days. I live in NYC.

Hello Peter,
How are you doing? Good to hear from you. Your Homer was quite an achievement. I still remember the Jeff Beck soundtrack you used with the slides & the images. I'm sure you've moved way beyond that. In the early 80's I'd occasionally see your name associated with VFX. I hope all is well. I'm pretty much out of the business now and shooting LF and doing some mentoring of students.
All the best,
Mark

How cool is it to hear from one of the owners of Harrison and Harrison on here. I hope you still get on the forum here. I have a D-1 and an Rf-1 filter myself and loved using them until it looks like the D-1 separated and got a little bit of delamination to it. I am going to try the heating it up trick and see if it fixes itself.
