How do I do what I do?

 

Jesus is the reason why I do what I do. He is the center of every life… Yes, even though we may be His enemies! So, His help is usually in the form of 'trial and error', paving the path towards beauty with our failures. You will find most interesting the "optical tests" that I do from time to time using the slanted edge method and proper software. Some of the tests have been published in this website for the first time ever (before I kept them secret). Remember you can get here some of the winning hardware in these tests (see LINKS).

 A 'New Approach' for testing optical trains 

This first eyepiece review was first published in Cloudynights forum (here). I did this microscope eyepiece review to get a good combo for my planetary telescope (eyepiece projection technique).

THE "CRAPPY" vs THE "BEST": Battle of the Barlows Test Shootout... through "slanted edge" testing method in high resolution enviroment

This 4th review was published on 26th Dec 2022 as a first in this website. I also sent it to other sites to see it published. I did it mainly to test the APO Zeiss against the APO Nikon. To "fill in the holes" and for fun I also added some other cheap glasses from asian market (the 3rd is yet unpublished).
