Re: Single camera stereo ( where subject moves or camera slides)

Hey Wayne, just between us now-----I confide that i think cross eyed free viewing is a kind of well shall I say it, I will, that tis a -weenie approach to free view pairs..What? What he say?

When the image remains where it should be yes, behind the plane of the screen or page and the window can be controlled so much better. Yes, it is unnatural to separate accomodation from convergence. It is a muscle training exercise. But. Big But. This was known from the Gilded Age. Thus the Stereoly viewer, the Verascope viewer, the Stereotach viewer, the Realist, Wollensak, the Revere, the Iloca, and on and on, even the Viewmaster viewer,,,. The preferred method is to use a Side by Side method. I know some just can't get it, sorry lads and gals..... But apparently some heroic types do, and some even do not find they can cross their eyes and get the same effect or enjoy the result. I am one. And likely to remain that way for the rest of my natural life. So be it. It is a big tent, thank Providence. No, I never ever in my life resorted to the cha cha method. I guess I am a compulsive when it comes to the glory of stereoscopy. And i have a self importance on the subject from so many years with the two lens world.
