Lenticuar in NY continued...

[Eric_Drysdale@xxxxxxxxxx (Eric Drysdale)]

Hello all,

Checked out the New York Camera Show this weekend, and everything was a bit
pricey.  Someone was
offering a complete VM outfit for...$1300, for example.  Didn't end up buying
anything, but 
talked at length with Weber Leung, of Weber's 3-D photo, who had a booth set
up.  He had 
a couple of the Japanese  Kodak lenticular single-use cameras, and a "Rittai
2",
which I've never heard of before...  a four-lensed reloadable consumer jobbie
with plastic lenses for
$25.00!   No flash, but with a hot shoe.  

He demonstrated for me how the lenticular screen
goes over the interlaced photo, and did so with an 8 by 10 image that he
proudly showed me
was taken by David Burder, apparently from a Nimslo he had modified to 8
lenses. Mr. Leung 
claimed that not only did he provide lenticular processing using all 4
images, he can set up 
for up to 12 images at only a "small" extra cost.  The examples he had on
display were pretty 
damned good, especially some back-lit commercial work he'd done.  

I'm not a lenticular shooter, just posting for the benefit of the group, so
this shouldn't
be seen as an endorsement or anything.
