Re: [photo-3d] Stereo Demise AND CONFUSION OF TERMS LONG POST

["John A. Rupkalvis" <stereoscope@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

In the wonderful world of stereo there is room for all of these things and
more.

I enjoy looking at beautifully rendered orthostereo images, faithfully
recorded in correct geometric three dimensional perspective for all three of
the X, Y, and Z axes in accurate proportion to the original subject.

I also enjoy looking at hyperstereos.  That distant wide-base telephoto shot
of the village way down in the valley that looks like a miniature for a
model railroad set can by its very nature be very visually appealing.

Likewise, a narrow-base hypostereo shot of a model railroad that makes it
look like a lifesize train can be equally captivating.

There is room for everything.
