[Radiance-general] Surface Depth Hallucination

[Iebele Abel]

Hi Greg,

I've had read both articles, and the text describing the process looks
doable. We use the same camera and have several flashes. Using 1 flash seems
better now, since I am not able to build the 3-flash controller (maybe
later). Mac is fine.
Anyway, I would be glad to try it,

A soda-water cheers,

Iebele
