Called the Horseman 3D, the new camera features the ability to make stereo pictures of high-speed moving objects, such as flying birds, jumping animals, a spray of water, and indoor or night scenes. These kinds of shots were difficult with conventional stereo cameras, but are routine with the Horseman 3D because of a unique 24x65mm size electronically controlled focal plane shutter that allows perfect synchronization of right and left images up to 1\/1000sec. shutter speed. This synchronization is possible thanks to a 24 x 65mm long blade, one piece metal focal plane shutter.<\/p>\n<p>Besides high-speed stereo shots, the camera is ideal for studio photography, weddings, pets, recording academic research, and criminal investigation.<\/p>\n<p>Features of the 35mm split-image Rangefinder focal plane camera include aperture priority AE system, automatic film winding and precise rangefinder focusing that allows quick stereo snapshots. A pair of sharp 38mm F2.8 lenses give crisp and vivid stereo pictures. The camera only weighs 900 grams.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;What makes the Horseman 3D truly unique is its high level of precision, which comes from its integrated metering and advanced shutter system,&quot; said Richard Dischler, head of US sales for Direct Source Marketing. &quot;In addition, this is the first 3D camera that has been built from scratch and not had 3D added on to an existing system.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Direct Source Marketing was created as a result of the joint venture between Komamura Corporation, a long time distributor of Rollei and Horseman products in Japan, and Franke &amp; Heidecke, the Germany-based manufacturer of Rollei products. DSM is the U.S. distributor of the partnership&#8217;s medium and large format Horseman and Rollei professional cameras.<\/p>\n<p>The Horseman 3D will be available at retail outlets later this month.
