Hi Radim,
I have photographed so many different things with lasers and other lighting. The last project I worked on for a few weeks was using empty plastic sleeves that flourescent bulbs go in. Image putting a bit of fog into them and shine lasers into them. Right now I am working with my Slinky, a piece of screen, my lasers and my spheres. I have already taken over 150 pics this week of them and will be photographing again tonight. Some incredible patterns have been created in the spheres.
Hey Radim,
I used to set up all of my stuff in my garage , including black curtains every Thursday and Friday, and photograph for a few hours Friday night and have to take everything apart and put it away (which would take an hour) since I (and the wifey) needed my garage on the weekends. So I got to photograph lasers once a week. When we sold our townhouse and bought another house, one stipulation was for me to get room dedicated to my photography. Not only did I get my room but half of a finished basement which is my man cave. Mostly anything I need while photographing is within 20 feet. Now that whatever I have set up in my room can stay for as long as I want it to explore. I usually photograph 4 days a week totaling 100-150 shots depending. And on Saturday morning I do all of my computer work, such as minor photo editing , the "Photobucket" thing preparing 25 shots or so in the language that is needed to post, my Flickr page , and getting them onto my hard drives and ipad. Thats about 3 hours every Saturday. I am able to explore photographing lasers, analyze what I have photographed in detail and tweak camera settings, mirror and glass placement, etc and work on an idea for weeks at a time if need be. Last night, after analyzing what I had photographed in the previous week, I repositioned all of the glassware, switched out lasers, and added some mirrors and diffraction gratings, but did not turn on my camera . All of the lasers, slinky, glassware are positioned perfectly. All I have to do when I get home from work all I have to do is turn of the fog machine and some lasers and I am photographing within 5 minutes.
Anyway here are a few pics of the flourescent tube thing and what I just starting working on now, the Slinky and piece of screen.

Idk if anyone has bought the mini version yet, but the standard version seems to be quite reputable and popular around here. Just the other day another guy bought a 100mw 473 PL-E pro. The only thing I wonder about is how the duty cycle might be different between the two different options. Personally I would probably just pay the extra $50 for the full version to get a beefier host, but that's me.

^Interesting info. Thanks for posting this. It reminds me of my 593.5nm penlaser which works the best after the host gets warm to the touch. While cold it modehops, stops lasing entirely and generally works like crap.first to the OP-- Bowtieguy is about to get one & will do a complete review..
when the 1st Jetlasers 473 pro-ple lasers were offered they were underspec UNTIL completely warmed up- which took a lot of time-& the host was quite warm-- so in light of that-- looks like a long duty cycle needs to happen to get full power- kinda a conflict IMO..(BTW its 'Jetlasers'-not Jet laser)
