Oddly, the wax seems to diffuse light well and really handle hot spots just great. I think I just need to zoom in further; my wide angle lens (28mm) seemed even wider than it should so I think this is the issue. The image quality with super-thin wax was totally unacceptable, but the light loss was about a stop at most. Oh well, now that I've destroyed my projection screen I'm going to have to try and remake it; hopefully I'll get it working again.

wax is supposed to be the best in terms of all the GG

what kind of wax are you using? Could be the problem.

theoretically it should proved the least grain and least light loss with a nice diffusion depending on coating.
 
Whoa, this thread is old...

I should really update with the changes I've made in the design, but ultimately the one thing I want to improve most (the macro) is sadly hard to find a good replacement for. The out of focus edges are mostly the Asian brand macro, although this can be dealt with by stopping down the DVX's aperture.

If anyone finds a better macro for cheap, please do share.

is it possible to use a smaller macro then the possibilities really open up.
 
It might be, with step up rings. My intuition says that 58mm or larger would probably work with an 100a.
 
keep in mind, that the farther away from the macro the object is (that you are trying to enlarge), the more smearing you will see around the edges. The 58mm asian macros will work fine (at least in the OUR35), IF your adapter doesnt push it too far from the screen.
