[MF3D.FORUM:796] Bill's MF mounting woes

I received three images from Bill Glickman in the mail today.

1) 747 behind a fence - no label
2) Lawn chairs and table on back patio - "labeled base too far"
3) Rock waterfall and pond - labeled "base too wide"

I have good news - I was able to correct all the images and 
mount them so that they are viewable (although one was close 
to the 3mm maximum deviation due to a close object the I 
didn't want to violate the window). Here is what I found:

1) This was just mounted pseudo (right image where left should 
be and left where right should be)
2) and 3) These were mounted with infinity in front of the 
window and had from 7-10mm of deviation.
2) Both of these chips were trimmed on the left side only 
(right side still had frame borders)
3) Right chip had only the left border trimmed and the left 
chip had both sides trimmed.

You are trimming the wrong sides of the chips and placing the 
window incorrectly.

I could try to explain the stereo window here, but you really 
need to have someone show you in person (or read up on it in a 
book such as "The World Of 3-D" by Jac. G. Ferwerda). To tell 
you that you need to see more of the image on the left side of 
the right chip and the right side of the left chip probably 
wouldn't mean much to you.

Please rest assured that your cameras are working fine and 
there is no problem with the stereobase (as long as you keep 
the closest objects at the minimum allowed distance).

That's all for now,
