Needs a link to grism too. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 169.237.215.179 ( talk) 00:27, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
This article has too many images, most of them show the same aspect of the prism, or are more technical than the text. It would make sense to remove all but maybe one or two, and possibly add something like this image from the Dispersion article:
As it actually shows the action of an Amici prism.
I would like to pitch my support for keeping the figure. I think it serves a useful purpose in visualizing what is meant by direction vision dispersion, something which is not explained anywhere else in Wikipedia. NathanHagen ( talk) 02:21, 3 November 2011 (UTC)
The three-prism image seems wrong. It looks like the red light is bent more than the blue light in the left prism, and that the green light isn't bent at all. This is different from what I'd expect from Abbe number and disagrees with the diagram in the linked article. —Ben FrantzDale ( talk) 13:43, 15 October 2011 (UTC)
In my education, "Amici prism" has normally been used by default to mean the non-dispersive Amici roof prism. Should we move this article to something like " Amici prism (dispersive)" to make room for a disambiguation page? -- SoledadKabocha ( talk) 00:37, 26 September 2013 (UTC)
