    Default Where to buy acetate?

    Hi all and thank you very much for your help so far.

    I'm busy doing some research, well, the past year or so. I have stumbled across this tutorial which I have enjoyed very much. I like the simplicity and the fact that one is not bound to a box.

    This guy is using something called acetate film to diffuse the light. Where in Johannesburg can I source this?

    Then, he is also talking about flexi-glass. It doesn't look like perspex. Any idea where to get some?

    Thank you again.

    Hi Shaun and thanx for the reply.

    Is it perhaps possible that the company's name is spelled with a z and not s?

    I could only find Maizey. Is it the same company?

    Thank you very much.

    HAhahaha... yep... it would be this one: http://www.maizey.co.za/

    Hey! if you can't spell a word in at least three different ways, you are not creative enough to be a photographer!

    Looking at how you ended up spelling my name, I think you will do just fine!
