Re: To cope with shifting light conditions

Thanks for your advice Skylark!

I think I have a polarizer in my Centra 1,8 twin, will try that next time.

Earlier when I have encountred this problem I have tried adjusting the fore sight size, not always with sucess. I will focus more at learn to adjust my iris.
