Hi Eric,
The Zeiss Jena Tessar lenses 3.5 / 37.5 mm lenses are also my main reason for
looking at this camera. I hope I can get it for considerably less than $400.
You seem to have good knowledge of stereo gear. Does anyone still make a good
illuminated stereo handviewer?
Where can I get the German RTB slide mounts. Google did not help.
One website said the Belplasca generates the frames of 28.9 x 24.3 mm. So not
quite square like a Robot image.
Is there a way to scan stereo pairs and get the stereo effect on screen?
Thanks,
Jan
