1. 3D Stereo Rig The 3D Stereo Rig is a modular mirror rig for stereoscopic recording. This professional tool enables the user to record stereoscopic content with interaxials from 0 cm till 12 cm. It uses a sophisticated beamsplitter design that allows the lenses to physically overlap - this is crucial to achieving the precision you need for quality 3D production. -

3. Mechanical Setup The 3D Stereo Rig is modular designed: This means that you can use the rig in different setups with different components depending on the camera model and the lenses you want to use. - Page 10 3D StereoRig cre ate d by a la i n d ero be For an optimal aligning of the camera adapters (which is crucial due to the sophisticated cali- bration method) use the distance tool (13) and in case of the vertically fixed camera adapter the distance tool (13) and the distance ring (13a).

Then attach your Sachtler Touch and Go plates (12b) to the P+S Technik 3D camera plates (12) with the provided screws. Make sure that the plates are alligned cor- rectly (horizontal and parallel to the border of each camera plate).

Calibration In the following paragraph you get to know which knob is responsible for which adjustment. 4.1 Distance of the Cameras to the Mirror (affecting the size of one picture in relation to the other) You are able to change the distance of the cameras to the mirror by turning the distance adoption knobs (10c, 11c). - Page 16 3D StereoRig created by a l ai n dero be...

Basically with the change of the interaxial you change the depth of your 3D image.

Page 18: Storage And Care
5.1 Storage and Transportation Best storage and transportation is the optional flight case. Always keep the 3D Stereo Rig in a dry place. 5.2 Cleaning the Mirror The special coated mirror is very sensitive. Don’t clean it with acid detergent. Use a dry micro- fiber cleaning cloth to wipe off any dust or dirt or a slight humid microfiber cloth wetted with a water and denatured ethyl alcohol mixture (1:1) to clean off grease or oil. -
