Ya I know Some people may have not read it; some may also want a cheaper alternative. Since recently a lot of ppl are interest in the LSII PJ, no harm.

Cheers

If you don't put the "cut section to dome" into the main dome and also clearer type of plasticware, it's very much better, try it.

Enjoyed your effort. I returned my LSII PJ less than a week after I bought it from CP.

Not that I didnt like the effect it produced, I just couldn't justify paying 80 bux for plastic/rubber/vinyl cup and i can't for the life of me imagine myself using this huge camera tumour in public.
