[MF3D.FORUM:14] Re: View camera question

[Tloc54452@xxxxxxx]

One of our guys has made a viewer with fairly long lenses and 
front-surface mirrors at 45 degrees.  I have looked in it and the 
wow factor is really there.  I think it beats my medium format
viewer using slides shot with my old Mamiya pretty handily.
My viewer has the better lenses but he still gets more detail,
I think.  I see no grain and I think there is about as much detail
as I can see, or it's fooling me somehow.  

If I were shooting LF stereo pairs, I would shift the front standard
the distance between my eye centers and I would shift the back
the appropriate amount to set the stereo window.  I think I did a
cartoon of how to figure that amount some time back.  Let me look
on my web site....  OK, here we go.  Go to

and look at 
Calculate where your camera's window is. (PDF file). 
You can also look at 
Do you know where your camera's window is? (GIF file). 
but I think you already know this.
