Re: KINDAR Camera (digest 1550)

Re: Watch your mouth Dr. George...A KINDAR camera is the creation of
Rochwite himself and like the Realist has forehead holding with
viewfinder/RF at bottom. Its booklet even has one of the few photos of
the inventor. It of course makes American 35mm format stereogramms. The
camera was an economical model that came it just as the boom was ending
and after all the biggies like Kodak had jumped on the band wagon, so
failed as the market went away.
On the other hand a Zeiss Sterotar is a beam spitter prism attachment
and with the C I would guess Contaflex if postwar or Contax if prewar.
So it would produce normal slides with a pair in the frame that need
viewing with a mirrored or prism viewer..like the much cheaper
Stereotach that is better known as hundreds made. BobH
