The big white box (iron box) appears to be a film processor, which I think would be totally unnecessary for most people. This might have made sense if you were manufacturing many of these 3D prints, but for the hobbiest/artist you'd only need the camera.

Reading the patent abstract, I don't understand why the lenticular screen needs to move. I thought only the lens needed to move... harumph.

I have a picture of a flower taken with one of these cameras, and I nearly bought one of a white dog at an antique mall. One of these cameras in the hands of an artist or for portraiture could produce really incredible work.

If only I had $900....

I am bidding on the same camera and possibly the only one in my region, but is standard film all it needs?

I have had changed mobile and website and other contact addresses for a long time.
And the 3D cameras had been all sold out.
