Stereoscopic Society
Description
The Stereoscopic Society brings together all who are interested in viewing or taking photographs or making videos in 3-Dimensions. Movies are being made in 3D, many TVs are now able to display 3D images. Some phones, tablets, notebook computers and electronic photo frames include 3D displays. Some can even display 3D without using special glasses.
Many grew up with the Stereocards and viewers contained in Weetabix packets of the 1960s, others with the marvels of the View-Master reels available from many souvenir shops throughout the last few decades of the 20th Century. There have been many 3D movies, including Jurassic Park, Avatar and many more. Do you have a 3D TV at home? How about showing holiday photos in full 3D on your 3D TV? Go one further and produce home 3D movies.
Join the Stereoscopic Society and you too can be producing 3D still photographs and 3D movies using one of the commercially available 3D cameras, or, for the more adventurous a home built 3D camera rig. The Society has many members to help with wonderful 3D productions. Many members have their own specialities such as wildlife, time lapse, macro and microscopic work, all of which they would love to share.
