Last Chance-
The popular three lens camera from the late 1990s is selling out.

Originally intended as a three lens camera for the production of 3D stereo lenticular prints, it records three half-frame (24 x 18mm ) images on regular 35mm print film from which is made, the lenticular print (3D photographs that require no special glasses or special viewers).

For a few years, lenticular print processors where scarcer than hen's teeth.  The lenticular cameras stopped selling.  But, now there are a few lenticular processors doing a booming business as the lenticular camera owners are once again shooting away for lenticular prints.

  • For many years owners of lenticular stereo cameras found myriad other uses for these very unique cameras.  Among those uses is production of standard stereo prints or stereo slides

  • For stereo prints, owners use negative film and ask for 2x3 or 4x6 inch prints.  Then cut the prints and mount them on homemade cardboard or ready made mounts sold by 3Dstereo. 

  • For slides, owners use slide film, then cut and mount the outer film chips (1st and 3rd) in half-frame (4p or Nimslo format) stereo mounts, either plastic or cardboard, both sold by 3Dstereo.

  • Owners often use reading glasses in front of the lenses to take close up pictures, and then use two images immediately next to one another (1st and 2nd or 2nd and 3rd) to make either prints or slides.

  • Many owners now have their film processed and scan into their computers, either the negatives or the positives to be able to turn their stereo pairs into what ever 3D format they wish to output.

  • And uses don't even stop there.

Interesting tips for 3D photography from the instruction manual:

  1. For best results the subject should be between 6 and 12 feet (2 to 3.6 m)

  2. For enhanced 3d effect include subjects such as flowers or trees 2-3 feet in front of the main subjects so that the composition had foreground interest, as well as background and scenery

  3. Do not place persons to be photographed in front of a wall.  Photograph subjects against a more interesting and colorful background that creates a great sense of perspective, accenting the 3-D effect.

Having a strong foreground close to the camera is more important with this camera than other standard (realist format etc) stereo cameras, because of the relatively short distance between the lenses.  In one sense, this camera is perfect for close ups!
