Re: [photo-3d] Re: lenticular quality

[Gene in Texas <tex3d@xxxxxxxxx>]

Well that's quite a dream , but what a fantastic idea
if someone were to come up with a way to get all that
done in one place after all 3d cameras are still being
sold like hot cakes at times on auction.  I think th
eplant in Georgia went up because of the lenticular
material that is not easy to get and order in small
quantites..but maybe I'm wrong...There was some other
outfit in NY that was doing the 24 and 36 exposure
rolls with decent prints but they went to making only
24 x 36 inches and up for commercial
customers...mayber they will return some day to the
regular printing of lenticular, i will sure let
everyone know if I hear from them...Good luck to all
in their quest...Have a nice week-end....
