My 3D cameras are all twinned, regular cameras. My first 3D camera was built just for testing and cost whopping $10 each. Just two plastic cheapos glued to an aliminum bar.

Well, that was enough to capture my interest and I purchased two Olympus Epics for my next 3D camera (35 mm/f2.8 lens). I built a system based on hinges that allowed me to turn the cameras into vertical mode. The cameras gave me nice shots, and served me well before I sold them and built my next 3D camera system which is....

... based on two Konica Lexio's. Many of the photos in my gallery are taken with this system. It has a 28-70 mm/f3.4-7.9 zoom lens, and the picture quality is pretty good. Again, it was built on a hinge system that allowed me to take vertical shots.

But just like any other photographer, I craved for more control. So, I decided to go SLR this time. My next camera had two Canon Rebel bodies and 22-55 mm lenses. As you can imagine, the camera is pretty huge since it's again two twinned cameras. On top of that, it's again built on hinges and has quite a bit of aluminum, nuts and bolts to make the base strong enough, but rather heavy. But again, the quality of the pictures was better than before and I'm quite happy with the system. The range of the lenses (22-55mm) was quite unusual, making it possible to take wide angle shots and portraits with the same lens.

Well, then the digital fever struck. I sold many of my previous cameras and my primary system at the moment is a twinned Nikon 5400 rig (28 - 114mm lens), with some fancy accessories such as 22mm wide angle adapter. Currently I'm very much enjoying the flexibilty of being able to manipulate the images any way I want. Whenever I need slides for polarized projection, I make slides out of my digital photos.
