Austrokiwi, that's an amazing photo. I've never managed to get that level of detail, I obviously still have a long way to go... (then again, I also don't have a 40 MP camera) :)

wow AK great photo. AK here is 2 images with a homemade ring light. actually this is a car head light. Cobb angel eye. here is the photos no editing single photo no stacking. I know stacking improves the photo greatly. but I am lazy its only 44 Celsius with the humdex at 8 o'clock this evening.

wanted to try this true view glass. it is like I told the supplier. if you are using UV coating. it will show a colour. well it shows in a pink contrast. I will contact the supplier. to see if they have clear coat for UV. but as far as the glass goes. it works good other than that pink. thought on the images.

Would automatic white balance help with the pink?

A couple of weeks ago I conducted a comparison between an axial lighting rig and a adapted Microscope ring light. I was shocked at the difference. Below the significantly reduced( and therefore degraded) image I have placed a link to my Google drive where you can down load ( or just preview)the full sized Jpegs(converted from Tiff). I did very little editing so that I could get a warts and all comparison. Camera Sony A7rII, lens Minolta CE-Rokkor 80mmm F5.6 at 5.6. background is Edmunds optics black out material, beam splitter is an Edmunds optics 50/50.

You can see the axial adds a color cast (Which was a surprise to me), ghosting( a secondary image created on the second air-glass interface), a "halo"/flare which I think is also caused at the glass-air interface of the beam-splitter. All the axial lighting artifacts can be edited away but, isn't it easier to not have to do such editing?

The full sized image really highlights the differences but it is large(64MB) you should be able to preview it rather than downloading it.
