greg_nixon2 Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 I have a Rollop TLR. The film compartment has no coating on the inside, just the bare die cast finish. Googling around with no clear direction I came across this: Vantablack | Surrey NanoSystems It would cut out any reflected light but would make looking in detail at it difficult. Just sayin.

m42dave Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 (edited) Sounds promising--too bad it's not available as a consumer product yet. I've used Protostar telescope flocking inside a number of FSU cameras, and it's very effective. Edmund Optics sells a similar flocking as well.

John Seaman Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 I had a Rollop a while back. I was convinced there was a light leak coming through the front when the lenses were fully extended: Roll Up for the Rollop I use sticky back black felt for internal flocking.
