To be fair, I will add that I HAVE used/owned 4 times as many Nishikas (both
varieties) as I have Nimslos... I disagree with those of you who assert that
it is a total scam/sham/fraud. Yes, there was illegal activity in it's
marketing, packaging, etc... BUT, it is a functional camera and probably the
most affordable one out there right now. I have made some very nice
stereocards from the outer most prints from images taken with Nishikas. No,
they are not Nikon quality, but they do work quite well, and were great for
their originally intended purpose - lenticular images.
IMHO this is adecent place to start in 3D photography, and a logical
stepping stone to cameras of better quality. How can you go wrong at the
prices they can be obtained at these days?? =)
If anyone reading all of this is interested, I have an extra set, including
still sealed Vincent Price "how to" video, still sealed original Nishika
film, camera, flash, boxes, etc that I might be willing to pass on. Write me
personally if you would like to give it a whirl yourself - since I have
several and only need one to sit on a shelf at this point, I will make a
good deal... ;-)
