Need a remote shutter release to control the 2 cameras simultaneously.
Here's one way - using stereo headphone connectors to splice together 2 cable shutter releases: http://vimeo.com/6404815
Decide instead to purchase radio controlled release. But which one? Canon RRP £400 or Yongnuo £10 ?
After thinking for a nanosecond or two I made my decision and bought 2 Yongnuo 128's from ebay.
Only hope it works. (i.e. that one remote will control 2 receivers to operate both shutters simultaneously).
Tried to find out by reading the instructions. Here are some excerpts:
Pretty shape - filled the smoothly modern feeling design, it's the best commune with machine
Okay so it looks nice
Pretty shape, it has the decoration function modern modelling, facile exquisite, whole set only like palm size, facilitates to carry.
So it looks nice and it's small - but can one transmitter control 2 receivers? I think the answer may lie in here but I can't be sure...
Because of the muti-wraps wireless will simultaneously use will have based on this the mutual influence, therefore the launcher and the receiver have established four digit switch codes, can avoid in the certain extent the disturbance. when the use group racket function, need transmitter's digit code switch to establish completely only as loon, then all receivers implements the active control to the region, realizes to camera focusing, the shutter and the B mode control.
Almost worth buying just for the Chinglish!

Brian May's book & Owl viewer
My first stereoscopic viewer arrived today - The 'Owl viewer' - part of a package with the book 'A Village Lost and Found' by Brian May (of Queen fame) and Elena Vidal.
Beautiful book. Bargain price from Amazon. Used the viewer on images on this blog - reasonable effect but images must still remain fairly small resulting in pixels becoming evident. Looking forward to arrival of viewers from California designed for viewing larger on-screen images.

1st step - 3D mount is on its way!
Just ordered a mount from California. The only company on planet Earth - it seems - which manufacture a bracket for mounting 2 SLR cameras vertically and close enough together to give a realistic stereoscopic effect is Jasper Engineering. Bought mine through www.Berezin.com also based in California.
Already have 2 Canon 10D's to which I will attach recently acquired cheap 28-80mm lenses (thanks ebay). I'm on the way to shooting in 3D!
