[photo-3d] Re: Teco-Nimslo

[L <jet_lk@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have used a Teco-Nimslo for about 4 years (as well
as many many many other stereo cameras).  I can
honestly say I have shot with almost every type of
1950's stereo camera (even 2 that were medium format),
and the Nimslo is a good camera.  It really depends
how you plan to shoot, and what you want out of the
camera.

So here are the pro's followed by the con's:

PRO's++++++++++++++++
The lenses are really sharp.
uses modern flash.
easy to load.
easy to operate.
can be used for macro stereo work (mainly what I use
it for).
small
not heavy at all
=====================


Con's----------------
only 4p wide
needs batteries for operation
automatic only with no control over anything
fixed focus
not heavy enough to win if you and Dr. T got into a
fight.  The doc would hit you with a realist (likely
one that had been modified for 7p shooting), and you
would be badly bruised.  You would hit him with the
nimslo, and the camera would be badly smashed.

There ya go.  I hope that answered your questions by
giving you valid information, and not generalized
instructions telling you to look for your answers on a
search engine.  Yup.
