I've been shooting with a Viewmaster Personal camera for a few years now and am about to acquire a flash attachment (the original). Can anybody tell me which...
The AG1B base will not work. The View-Master flash unit uses a bayonet style base. I use the M2 midget bulbs as well as the 5B. The M2 bulbs are smaller and...
I have been using a VM Flash Attachment for a number of years with flea-market and garage-sale flash bulbs. Flash bulbs are no longer manufactured in the US,...

There are adapters which will let you shoot an AG-base flashbulb (AG1, AG1B, AG3B) in a bayonet-base flash gun such as the Viewmaster flash. I have used them....
The filter to use for clear bulbs with daylight-balanced film is 80C. I found a couple of series 5 80C filters a few years ago. I use them sometimes on my...
... Unfortunately Scala has been discontinued, but DR5 may be worth a try. A bit pricy at about $18 to develop, but since you can get 70 exposures from a VM...
I have recently bought the Personal VM camera and have been using the European version for about 2years. I have the original manual but wondered if someone...
I don't know if they still make Polariod instant slide film or not, but DO NOT use that in a VM camera - it won't cut neatly in the film cutter. I found that...
One thing you can do if you want black-and-white slides, is to use this "chromogenic" (I think that is what it is called) black-and-white print film, which is...
... I believe Ilford still makes their film... it's at least still common to find. How did you manage to do slides with the Kodak film? Kodak's b&w film...
I'm not sure which B&W films could or would depolarize light. Some ESTAR base films (like Kodak High Speed Infrared) purportedly might cause polarization...
I don't know what Dale does, but I shoot it at the correct speed and send it to them and it comes back with black-and-white transparencies (along with the ...
Don't waste your time and money with B&W film. Just use color. I have been selling stereo slides from a fellow who was experimenting with color and black and...
... I would tend to agree that B&W may be unlikely to be commercially successful with the general public, but for one's personal enjoyment or artistic...
... Sounds like what they do is not cross-processing but rather just duplicating the negative as a slide. I haven't used the Ilford C-41 B&W films yet, but...
... I guess somebody needs to tell Christopher Schneberger that he's doing his View-Master sets completely wrong, eh? (BTW: I dream in 3-D.) -- -Timothy ...
... This _is_ put forward as a "modest proposal" isn't it? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Modest_Proposal Does it matter that the B&W reels someone may produce...
... Don't throw them out George. You could toss in a free one with any order from you! B&W stereo survived quite well for almost 100 years until color came ...
... Wake up and smell the coffee Tim... His images are supposed to be from the turn of the century when color was not even available. It is part of the ...
... From a commercial standpoint perhaps B & W slide film is not a good idea, but I would not know since I dont tend to sell my own images. I also dont shoot...
... But you said that nobody buys B&W. I'm sorry, but there's just a lot of horrid things about what you said. In fact, it seems that you want to stifle any...
Agree Chris' images are outstanding and he has won countless awards with them including best NSA slide presentation 2 years running. I'm sure his newest set...
Could anyone pls explain what effect the #85 View Master filters give and when is the best time to use these? I'm travelling to Egypt soon and as an amateur...

I know all of you technical experts might think this is a dumb or repetitive
question,but I am not a technical VM person-I just collect them. From listening to...
Hi Tim, Good to hear from you again and thanks for the useful link. Looking at the filter factor which is 3 in the case of the #85, it seems that it should...
Hi Linda, I do intend to buy some Kodachrome before my trip, but would these automatically balance the bright sunlight to a warmer tone? ... give ... soon ... ...
... What type of film do you normally use that you are comparing the Kodachrome to? I haven't really used K64 much and am more of a Fuji Provia 100 fan...
