Re: Peripherals for 3D Photography

I'm not sure what camera George is talking about putting a level on (that's
probably a stupid question, huh?),  but certainly for a  camera, the  smaller
the better.  I have used many of the typical bubble levels from hardware
store levels to attach to camera's (Loreo, twin SLR's, polaroids) .  The
levels are about 3/8" in dia. and are either 1" or 1 1/2" long.  The cheapest
way to get them is to buy the SEARS white plastic 9" long bubble level for
$.99.  You get two short and one long bubble unit with each level.  They
easily push out.  So that is only $.33 for each bubble.  But they are
probably a little too big for some of the stereo cameras, they don't hide
well.   I believe that Stereo Type (Craig Daniels) sells a smaller bubble
meant for the Nimslo.  If you are really adventurous, you can make your own
small bubble with a short length of small dia.clear vinyl tubing , and
bearing ball that will roll inside, and some silicone fluid or oil.  It's fun
to do, but it can get messy if it leaks.
