Hello Roundshot VR camera owners!    I have made tentative special arrangements with an optical testing company to test lens focal lengths for us once every 3 months at a price of $50.00 per lens. It doesn't matter what kind of lens you send or how big of a lens. You will receive the effective focal length of each lens back in return with your lenses unharmed. We are looking for this to take about a week or so per session as long as you give us your Fed-X number for shipping / insurance.


Are any measurements made other than the effective focal length (I am assuming at infinity focus)?

What is the accuracy of the focal length measurement?
