Well how about that? Someone buy it and lets see some photos with it!
Anyone experimented on liquid lenses? I tried ones, just by filling a sphere shaped bottle with water.. only shot one frame, didn't have a proper way to fasten it to a lensboard. I think something like purified gasoline or lighter fluid would be better than water anyway.
After the experiment, i googled and found one water lens.. it was made of two half sphere elements with the air space filled with water.
