Lens Type: 3D, parallel view, all manual, no electronics
Lens system: 38 mm, f11, 2 elements, plastic polymer
composite
Sensor Format: ~ (22 - 24) x (14.5 - 16) mm subframe digital

4. When mounting the lens on the
camera make sure it is aligned
on the horizontal. This may
affect vertical alignment of the
image pair.
5. Usage: First select aperture by
turning the aperture ring. There
are three click stop apertures.
Set focus from 23 cm (9 in.) to
85 cm (33 in.). All distances are
measured from the front panel
of the lens, not the film plane.
6. The lens works with TTL flash,
Aperture Priority (AV) or
Program (P) mode exposure on
many cameras. For manual
control use a light meter or
exposure chart.
7 The 3D Macro Lens in a cap
has no auto diaphragm, so the
viewfinder image darkens when
f/22 is chosen. This allows the
user to judge depth of field, and

Focusing range: 9 - 33 inches (23 - 85 cm) measured from
the front of the lens.
Lens Extension: 52 mm filter mount for lightweight
accessories such as filters and number 1 - 4 closeup lenses.
Special Feature: Gives a digital SLR camera macro 3D
capabilities using normal processing. Retains many of the
features of an SLR camera, such as through the lens viewing,
auto exposure, TTL flash.
Digital SLR body mounts: Pentax K, Canon EOS, Nikon N,

8. When composing pictures,
photographers usually adjust
focus based on what they see
in the viewfinder. With a macro
lens this may be difficult. An
alternative way would be to first
decide on the distance to the
subject, set the focus accord-
ingly, and then position the
camera in the correct place.
9. Depth of field helps stereo
photography, so a fast film
compensates for a small
aperture. ISO settings from
200-400 give excellent results.
10. For each aperture, the Depth
of Field scale gives a distance
range in which all objects will
be sharp. For example, when
the lens is set to f/11, and the
subject is in focus at 30 cm, the

the back of the 3D Macro

mark on the camera body
and attach it to the camera.
2. This lens is for use with
subframe Single Lens Reflex
(SLR) cameras with the
image sensor format stated
on the box. Mostly, these will
be digital SLR cameras. If
used with a full-frame

camera, the surplus image

depth of field will be 27-33
cm. At f/22, 23-38 cm.
11. The 52 mm thread on the lens
can be used for mounting
filters or closeup lenses (nos.
1, 2 and 3). Attachments
should be selected and used
with care so as not to
damage the filter thread.
12. To protect the 3D Macro Lens
in a Cap, the focusing ring
should be set to the "PARK"
position before storing or
transporting the lens.
13. 3D photographs taken by this
lens are best viewed with
Loreo 3D Viewers. Some
people are able to free view
stereo images. The image
pairs do not correspond
exactly, so viewing methods
which require exact symme-
try may not be suitable.
