Side by side

[bernd katzmarczyk]

Does anyone know if a "scarlet 3d rig" will be a side-by-side rig as "announced" or a mirror-rig?

Thanks.

You will be able to buy both options.

You will be able to buy both options.

thus the size of scarlet will be small enough for a side-by-side...

That depends on what you consider "small enough".

Side by side rigs will not be very useful for normal professional shooting. Typical 3D camera interaxial distances are .25 to 3 inches. You will want to vary Interaxial and you will want to go to distances less than Scarlet sized parallel camera rig would allow, which I would guess is around a minimum of 4 inches.

Parallel rigs can and are used for occasional shots where there is no close object in the field of view of the the camera - by close think 25-100 feet.

Hope this helps.

About the width of a business card when I measured back at Red day. The boys are correct in that you'll spend a lot of time requiring less than 2.5" spacing between cams.
Yesterday my subject was 6 ft from camera, what felt the most comfortable was a distance less than an inch and a half.

Looks like the optical distance is less than 1.2 inches - that's why I thought it could work.

Measure from the center of the lens to the center of the other lens.
