Gez,

Thanks for doing all the 'legwork'.

I tried the link but their server is currently too slow for my impatient browser so I'll check again later.

Regarding the cost issue, you're very probably correct that the materials cost would be the major stumbling block.

However, you may have deduced from my username that I'm a bit of a scavenger and a trawl of film developer labs and vintage photographic plate manufacturers (at least those that aren't yet out of business) might be productive.
Maybe one that is going out of business would welcome an enthusiast as a recipient of its redundant stock of silver salts.

Perhaps using the pentaprism housing as the bath for the prism might reduce the quantities of materials needed.

I'd still give this method some thought and a thorough costing, though.

Thanks again for reminding me of the name of the process.
