Hello, Can someone help? When I turn the ring for adjusting the shutter speed, the window of my viewfinder (along with the viewfinder lens mask) turns too....
You need to tighten the viewfinder lens. Somehow, it got loose. When I clean these cameras, I remove the lens to clean it inside (and clean the mirror too). I...

George Thanks for the welcome, I am indebted to you for your great website and book on the realist. I am really enjoying preserving my 1 year old and our...
Greetings Stereo Realist enthusiasts, Here is something I am sure you have not seen before: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=370184264820 ...
... It depends on the operator. I don't need it personally. I can feed the slides faster when fed one at a time. I do not have to change trays every so often....
George will probably give the definitive answer about the physical arrangements, but behaviorally, you need to decide whether you are content with changing...
... This "semi-automatically" needs a bit of clarification, for people not familiar with the system. So, you put your slides in a tray, you load the tray into...
One final comment: Operating a stereo projector by feeding slides manually, requires a bit of practice and skill. With a little practice you can play the...
I've been projecting at the Chicago Stereo Camera Club meetings for many years. I've never had any real training on the TDC projectors, but yes, you do need to...

I recently shot some stereo slides for a friend's wedding with my realist using slide film. When I got the film back and started to mount the slides, I...
If it were me, I would cut the pictures that I want to use, mount them in 2x2 (standard) slide mounts, and then find a place to scan them (most photo stores...
