P3D Loreo format

The innovation in this camera is that the two images are swapped as taken, This means that the right lens takes the photo from the left side of the camera with the help of a mirror.  The print can then be viewed without swapping the images.  For a diagram of the light rays in the camera, see:

My Jules Richard Verascope stereo camera circa1900 came with a printing frame having a slider arrangement so that the glass negatives could be transposed for printing onto glass positive slides.  This isn't necessary with the Loreo, your local photo shop can just print the pair and it is ready for viewing.

That price for the Loreo w/ viewer seems too good to pass up.  I think I'll get one.  -Ralph
