I'm new to this; I've joined the NSA (two issues so far) and I've
subscribed to this thread. My interest is in older stereoscope images,
especially views of early industry in the west (particularly logging and
logging railroads.) I'm having some difficulty following the various
discussions and articles because I don't understand all the
terms/technologies and the differences between them. ......

Welcome, Dave--
We could use some more collector-types around here ;-)
I've followed a path similar to yours-- a second-year NSA member, almost a
year on Photo-3d. When I first started on P3D, the jargon seemed
impenetrable... I can testify that it gets easier to understand (most of it,
anyway; I don't know if _anyone_ really understands the formulas and ASCII
drawings!). 

Just about any stereo question you have will eventually come up for
discussion--sometimes again and again and again. For me, that's just fine,
because many things I didn't understand a year ago now make perfect sense.
Keep reading and you'll learn about all sorts of strange and wonderful 3-D
formats!

I have a couple views you may be interested in... got anything to trade?
best wishes,
