    It's nice but you can do most of it with one camera and a regular enlarging lens...

    The feel like the main thing this is useful for are a.) moving subjects and b.) video shooting.

    It's a very creative and interesting solution though!

    The device is for 2x (enlargement) 3D macro work.

    How do you do it with one camera and a moving subject?

    As I mentioned that‘s precisely what isn‘t possible with one camera!

    In fact, it is possible: a single camera and a dual-lens system.😀

    Thank you!

    The attached images are frames from video clips made a long time ago (2012) using two cameras and a 50/50 beam-splitter (similar formula to the one presented in the first post), to photograph/film insects in S3D, located at a greater distance (tens of centimeters) and lower magnification.

    From technical point of view, taking 3D images of living/moving subjects in close-up/macro area is a serious challenging.
