You are unique! Just like everyone else...
Mum: What do you want for breakfast? Me: Lasers Ofcource!
still find it very hard to create high quality photo/video, did some shooting this afternoon, will wait till it gets dark, color balance is superb, real nice yellow and high intense white.

What problem do you face when taking photo's?
exposure I guess right?
What you can do is not turn the exposure down.
Set it to it's highest.
hold the camera stable *DO not move*
record a short fragment of video it scanning a still frame.
Then Open virtualdub and lower the framerate A lot and blend the frames*
You will end up with a full scanned picture with no over-exposure. * (you export a small part of that blended video to an image )

the video is not a very acurate representation, in real life the graphics are much smoother.

got myself a hazer, found online a reseller that sold me a 1200 w version for low price, can't wait to put it to work in the garden and record my beamshow.
You will struggle outside unless you have a perfectly still day and a very high haze output.
The best outside amateur video I've seen was Hobbybob's Holiday BBQ video where he managed to use the BBQ smoke to good effect (I'm unsure if he added any smoke fluid to it).
However, he was very sheltered and even then there are visible breaks in the patterns in the video caused by smoke drift.
Remember this is a time lapse so disguises some of the problems but the drift is visible:

Nevertheless, an excellent video and one that I love.
Indoors is definately better if you manage it.
yes i agree but bear in mind that i do not have a separate room to fill with smoke in my house, best i can do is the garage ;-) (more barn actually and very small)
so to prevent my wife and children from being smoked out of their living room i will have to take it outside or they will apreciate my hobby a lot less.
If i don't get an opportunity to attend a school disco or something small elsewere i will not have the opportunity to film the beam show capabilities, call to action for the dutch enthousiasts, if you know of an event where i could put my build to work let me know, more than happy to attend.

Michel on my lem is hardly any wind
so in that case your hazer can do it's job properly.
I had a lasershow outside here.
(thanks to dnstje)
He had 3 projectors and just 1 fogger.
Worked great, but the fog didn't spread well.
Thats why I will have fans to blow the fog towards the building, the building will prevent the smoke from being blown further but also acts as a sound wall,
It bounces sound back so the speakers will likely be best positioned facing away from the house
But hey that's not of importance in this topic.
I want to see some beams already!![]()
1.2w states the video?
Your first post tells there's more...
But its a nice demo. Are they the pangolin test show or something?
Next some photos of inside your projector?with fog and maybe beams?
You are unique! Just like everyone else...
