Shutterbug

[P3D Tim Stabler <TSTABLER@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

In the March issue of Shutter bug, Darryl Nicholas writes about 
doing E6 processing at home.  A main concern was getting good color 
rendition from roll to roll of film.  He invites people to write him 
but, instead, I Emailed the editor Bob Shell at: 
                    76750.2717.compuserve.com
Be carefulk.  If you see the Email address in the magazine, it has 
commas instead of the period.

Yesterday, I had an Email reply from Darryl 
(colorbat@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx).  In response to my question where I 
can get E6 chemicals, he told me Unicolor, Beseler, Jobo offer E6 
besides Kodak and they have one liter kits available.  How many rolls 
can I do with one liter??  I can get Ektachrome processed here on 
campus for $3 per roll.  I do not know the timing.  They are taking 
three weeks to get a roll of Kodachrome back.

I also sent the following to Bob:

"Have you thought of doing anything on 3-D???  A lot of folks are 
into this and there are clubs all over.  I belong to the Chicago 
Club.  There is a lot of stuff on computers now.  I realize that most 
equipment is old and used but new equipment is being made, but on a 
limited basis.  I realize there are 3-D publications but since most 
of us go to Shutterbug for buying info, perhaps you could do a story 
on 3-D and see what happens."                    

To which I got this reply from Darryl:

"Very few people are even remotely interested!!!  But I'm one of them!
Still, I'm not sure what kind of an article I could do for 
SHUTTERBUG... it's such a vast field.  As a computer hacker, I'd 
think I'd be most interested in doing something relating to 
computers....???

I'll give it some thought...let me know is you have any suggestions."

I am sure people on this net will have suggestions---won't we??

I think even an article on "general" 3-D photography might stimulate 
new people to enter the field.  I am here because of the one-pager in 
the September issue of Popular Photography on stereo photography.  I 
got the catalog from Reel 3-D, got a couple small books on stereo 
photography and, as they say, the rest is history.

Let's give Darryl some ideas!!!!!
