Better Beamer in Australia??

Giphsub

Hi, does anyone know if the better beamer is available anywhere in Australia? The shipping costs from the US are ridiculous if I want to use somewhere like B&H...

I was looking for one in the UK a little while ago, but couldn't find anything. Like you I could only find US suppliers and stupid shipping costs (and any associated duty and taxes etc)

While I was searching I did find a few websites for DIY versions:

I have just made one today, but not really tested it yet - only in bright sunshine earlier on, so no idea if it works well or not yet - but for £1.50, and some card I had lying around, I haven't lost much if it doesn't work. However, I don't actually need one of these things an awful lot of the time, and for the few times it would come in handy, I can't justify $100 + tax / duty on one.

Hope that helps.

Thanks.

I've seen the DIY version, and might give it a go, but am still interested in finding out if it is available anywhere in Australia.
