For the FILM Stereo Photographer Who Wants the Best

RBT X3 Pentax mount SLR Stereo Camera w/28mm lenses

For sale by original owner

Here are four things you need to know about this camera:

1.  I am the original owner of this camera.  I have taken lots of award-winning pictures with it.  I have now switched to digital and that's why I am selling it.

2.  This is one of the most desirable RBT cameras, based on two RICOH XR-X 3PF bodies, which have a standard Pentax mount.  I bought the camera with linked zoom lenses but I never cared for zoom lenses (the focal lengths do not match to my satisfaction) so I sold the zoom lenses and used the camera with fixed focal length lenses, like the 28mm f2.8 PENTAX-M pair that come with this camera.  Pentax makes very good (compact & sharp) lenses, available in the used camera market.

3. This is the 75mm stereo base model (type B, see this link for an explanation of the different RBT camera formats: http://drt3d.blogspot.com/2008/08/rbt-film-formats.html ) For most people this is the most desirable spacing.  You can process a roll from this camera as if it is standard 35mm (2D) format.

4. The camera is not offered new for sale.  I believe the original sale price was around $3,500.  Buy this gently used camera for A LOT LESS!
