Re: [photo-3d] stereo and the moon

Here is a section of Apollo 12 transcript with information added later
by the astronauts themselves. It mentions the way they did the
"astronaut shuffle" 3D images:

118:07:55 Bean: Why don't we start picking up some rocks, Pete, while
we wait?

118:07:57 Conrad: Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. (Pause) Want to get a
picture of that?

118:08:03 Bean: Sure do. Let me get it set up. (Pause) Right. (Pause)
5 (foot focus) at f/8. (Pause)

[Bean - "We had a set procedure for taking these samples. And usually
Pete would point to the rock, put the gnomon near it. Sometimes I'd
wonder which rock it was, you know, if there was a bunch. And, then, I
would take a photo and then step a pace or two and take another to get
a stereo (pair) and then Pete would pick it up. And, meanwhile, I
think I'd get out my little sample bag and he'd put it in the sample
bag. And then we'd stick it in my (saddle)bag or his bag. So we had
like a little skit and that's what I think Pete's talking about now."]
