S3D Camera Hacking Booklet
- From: Mike&Dianne Watters <mdwatters@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
- Subject: S3D Camera Hacking Booklet
- Date: Tue, 22 Jun 1999 19:44:36 -0700
I haven't posted anything about the camera hacking book in a few
months. Despite that fact I've gotten a number of requests recently so
I thought it would be a good time to mention it again.
It's 60 pages of projects including:
-building an anaglyph lens for your SLR
-base seperation formulas with a pocket slide-rule calculator
(included)
-FED camera modifications
-A simple slide bar
-Realist viewer to 7P conversion
-the XA-2 twin camera rig (XA-2x2)
-Nimslo modifications
-a high quality filmstrip previewer
-macro camera principals
-a Siamese camera based on the Argus C3 (the See-3D)
The projects are discussed at various levels. Most (including the
XA-2x2 rig) are in the form of extremely explicit step-by-step
instructions. Others (like the See-3D camera) are discussed in detail,
but not "step-by-step" per se. A few (mainly the macro chapter) are
discussed in principal only, laying out the basic approach and leaving
the execution to the reader.
The booklet is designed with the beginning hacker in mind. It's intent
is to get more people started in this area and serve as a source of
ideas, inspiration and confidence. I'm asking US$25 for the booklet
which includes shipping in North America.
Please Email for an address or if you have any questions.

For those who have built or are considering building the Argus C3
siamese camera, I've noticed that the extra lenses (100mm and 35mm) show
up on eBay on a regular basis and tend to go for $35-$50 each. Probably
cheaper at camera shows, but eBay saves the time and hassle rooting
through tables at the shows. The MOST I paid for any of my lenses was
$35 for a 35mm new-in-box was at a camera show.
