[photo-3d] "Free" Belplasca lens caps

["John Goodman" <jgood@xxxxxxxx>]

With the recent posts about using film can caps for various 
things... A while back, I discovered that some black Kodak 
caps were almost a perfect fit for use as Belplasca lens caps. 
Normally they are a tad too loose, but you can burnish the thin 
inner "seal" toward the center with your fingernail and then they 
fit just right. Cheap enough to replace if they get lost. Just 
remember to take 'em off before shooting.   :-)

Some time ago, someone helpfully mentioned that by cutting 
pin bars in half, RBT mounts could be used in a "non-float" 
mode but correct for minor rotational errors. I haven't tried this 
yet, but am wondering if anyone regularly uses this technique 
and with what degree of success.
