Re: Attempt to DIY a beamsplitter stuck at double image

I have a small rig which has two 'first surface mirrors ' positioned in a similar way to the rig mentioned above. I put it in front of the lens of my camera and half of the image was via the two mirrors and the other half was direct ( ie no mirrors in the path of the image) . I took a photo and cropped out the parts of the image I wanted and aligned it in Stereo Photo Maker and produced this cross-view image. Notice there is no double parts on the edges. The mirrors were made by Edmund Optics.
