[photo-3d] Re: Instructional info for Kodak Stereo Camera

["David Nadolski" <peaceablegrotto@xxxxxxxxx>]

Ray:

	Thanks very much for your response.  Now that onelist.com & 
egroups.com are merging, I was able to see your article directly.  In 
fact I had already seen it, and it was one of the things that 
influenced me to buy the Kodak.

	Thanks especially for mentioning the original exposure guide.  You 
probably saved me a lot of grief.  The spirit level was another
reason 
I chose the Kodak.  I'm really looking forward to getting my camera, 
although I'll probably send it out again to Dr.T or someone so they 
can put it in tip top shape first.

Thanks again,
DN

> David, welcome to this list and I hope that you get a lot of
enjoyment from your Kodak Stereo. My first stereo camera, about 25
years ago, was a Kodak Stereo 35. A short article that I wrote a few
years ago about this camera is located in the files section of this
Photo-3D list. Just log on to:

should be a good start.
 Do not use the camera's exposure guide  - it was for the 10 ASA (now 
10 ISO) speed Kodachrome film that was in use in the mid 1950s. Use 
the guide notes that come with some film, or better still, use an 
exposure meter. In my opinion, the best way of learning about 3D 
photography is to join your closest 3D club.
 As far as books and further information about stereo photography are 
concerned, have a look at some of the following websites.
http://www.stereoscopy.com/
 This site has links to just about everything 3D.
 http://stereoscopy.com/isu/  International Stereoscopic Union site - 
also has a list of member Stereo Camera Clubs and contacts for further
information. There is also information about joining the ISU which 
publishes the quarterly bulletin 'Stereoscopy'.
 Best of luck with your Kodak Stereo 35 - you will have no excuse for 
sloping horizons with the built in spirit level, one of the most 
useful accessories for any stereo camera.
