Shooting vertical (portrait mode)

Regularly I don't see a good reason to shoot stereo vertical, but today I founded in my bag a small ball head adapter that can be mounted in the hot shoe of a camera.

I mounted the 2 cameras together, connect them to the pistol grip and it works!

I ask my wife to take a picture of me with this setting with other camera.

I will show some results in cross eyes mode:

The stereo base was 13cm (I love bigger than eye distance stereo base)

Because I show my stereo pictures on 3DTV or an Gear VR, I don't really have a reason to shoot vertical, but it was nice to try.
