[photo-3d] another beamsplitter

Again, for those who are interested in making their own
beamsplitters, and want to see a picture, here's the Pentax:

www.stmattpitt.org/pentax.jpg

It's shown with its front and rear caps--the front cap being
one of its best features. The front and rear glass of the
Stitz has been praised, but on the one I have the glass is
cloudy on the inside. The front is not too hard to remove and
clean, but the back I have never figured out. Besides, its
adjustable mirrors are out of alignment.

FWIW, I think the Pentax is the best all around. It has its
limitations, but you can work pretty well within them, and
the results, especially slides with the companion viewer,
are excellent. I don't know how well it would work on a
video camera. I use it on an Olympus 50mm f/1.8, mounted
to an Olympus OM-10 camera.

Mark
