Re: Any advice and help rigging twin cameras for 3d stereo?

Hi,
Our once in a lifetime trip to London is set for May this year and my stereo Wallensak and Revere film cameras are having mechanical difficulties. Plus, I would like instant feedback. I am ready to go digital. I have not been successful with the quality of my Fujifilm W3 and I am not really accustomed to the aspect ratio. I do have the last of the plasmas, a Samsung 51" TV that has active 3D.
I really am not clever with cha-cha and worried about the breezes and the water motion. So, I am hoping for your advice on twin cameras and rigs that can mimic the eye separation of my film cameras. Any and all help would be appreciated.
This forum helped me choose a TV a few years ago, but I had to register as a new user on dpreview.com, because I could not log on or get the site to recognize me.
Thank you,
Sherri
This is an idea that I am just beginning to investigate, so it is not advice just yet. I have been thinking, and wondering how a pair of Nikon Coolpix A cameras mounted side by side on a stereo bar would perform. Not sure if a single Nikon remote could fire both cameras at the same time or how to do that yet. These are 16MP APSC sensors with a fixed 28mm lens mounted in a point and shoot size body. If the remote will work for 2 cameras this could be the way I move forward into digital stereo.
Your Wollensak Stereo 10 is worth fixing I hope. Mine has been my favorite film stereo camera.
Enjoy your visit to London, and get us a shot from atop of The Eye please.....
