[MF3D.FORUM:180] Lottery thread on Pentax mailing list

[Greg Erker <erker@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Someone on the Pentax Discussion Mailing
list started a thread about you won a
lottery, what would you buy. Below is
my answer. 3D related natch :)

  For 35mm I'd get an RBT X2II
http://www.rbt-3d.de/x2ii.htm

with matched Pentax FA43/1.9 and FA77/1.8
lenses. It's a stereo SLR that RBT
makes by fusing two Ricoh SLRs together.
So that would use up my 4 lenses.

  The camera is about 3 grand I
believe and I'd guess another 4
grand for the matched and linked
lenses. It would take some pretty
awesome 3d photos (and 2d if I
was so inclined).

  For my Med Format camera I'd take
a mint condition Rolleidoscop and
get it tuned up and the lenses AR
coated (probably $4000 or so).

  For my other two Med Format lenses
I'd take some 75/2.8 Zeiss Planars that just
happen to be attached to two Rolleiflex's.
They I could shoot hyperstereos with
some first rate lenses.

Do you think I'm obsessed with 3d?  :)
