| General Info | ||
|
Marco Pauck's very nice and very handy web searchable database of the Photo-3D, tech-3d, sell-3d, and other mailing list archives. Marco has a very interesting site, wander around the rest of it while there. The database, however, is where I go back again and again again. I'm sad to note that the archives are no longer being updated, but it's still a great place to search for older postings!

||
| Stereoscopy.com | Just a great site with a bit of everything | |
| 3D related Mailing lists | Long list of eMailing lists that are stereoscopically related. List is on the Rocky Mountain Memories web site (that has a lot of very nice things to buy, especially for medium-format 3D stereo, "see below"). | |
| 3D Stereo Organizations and Clubs | ||
|
The BEST local club, here in metro Portland, Oregon, USA !!!!
|
||
| National Stereoscopic Association | The BEST national club in USA, also with the best 3-D magazine | |
| Places to purchase 3D Stereo related items | ||
|
This is where one goes for high quality modern 3D cameras, viewers and other stereo photography equipment. They are the USA distributor for RBT cameras and Hugo de Wijs viewers (among other things). They also are the USA importer of RBT Mounts, the mounts to use whenever possible.
|
||
|
These folk are reliable and fast distributors for general supplies like mounts, stereo glasses, books, manuals for 50's stereo cameras, accessories, and the like.
|
||
| Although they sell items for various types of stereo photography along with books and other items, I know this company for their unique ability to supply Medium-format stereo items. Especially the Alan Lewis Medium format viewers (Medium format includes using pairs of 6-cm square slides using 120 size film). Medium format is harder to generate but can produce awesome results! | ||
| I haven't ordered from this site (yet) but have been meaning to do so for quite some time. He's got some very innovative cost-effective items along with accessory items such as halogen lamps for older (and newer) viewers. He's also got some nice-priced achromat lenses for one to put into one's own viewer projects. | ||
| Stereoview.com | Here's a place to go to buy archival plastic covers of various sizes to place over stereocards that one has collected or made. I haven't brought from him through the mail (yet), but may have bought from him at a stereo convention once. | |
| Stereo slide processing/mounting | Although you can "do it yourself", this is a list of places you can send your slide film to have them process/mount them in stereo mounts (usually heat-sealed paper mounts). This is a list maintained by Bill Davis on the Genesee Valley Stereo Guild's web site (worth looking at too, especially the FrankenPony project!). Of these, I've only used Kodak sometime in the past where the quality was okay for viewer viewing, but not for projection. | |

Manufacturers
|
||
|
High end modern stereo cameras, projectors, and slide mounts. Company is in Germany, and site is in German.
|
||
|
High end modern 3D stereo viewers. Spendy, but great viewers to dream about.
|
||
| Miscellaneous | ||
| 3dquarium | For me, this site is of interest because it has a lot of 3D images of my local area (Portland, Oregon, USA) in it's garden of stereo 3D. It also talks about ordering the equipment used to make the images on that site. | |
| Other interesting links | ||
| If your computer sits idle some of the day or night, here's something perhaps useful that it can be doing instead of doing nothing. It's a screen-saver (for many operating systems and processors) that analyzes radio telescope data for the folks at SETI. Click on banner to get more info! | ||
