AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Offered is a rare and fascinating piece of photographic history: the View-Master Personal Stereo Camera Mark II. This specialized camera was designed to allow hobbyists to create their own custom View-Master reels. Unlike the original Mark I, which used a diagonal film path, the Mark II (manufactured by Sawyer's in Europe) features a more streamlined design while maintaining the ability to produce 3D pairs on standard 35mm film.
The camera is equipped with a matched pair of high-quality Rodenstock Trinar 20mm f/2.8 lenses. Its unique built-in exposure calculator, featuring a colorful grid on the front, makes it a true standout in any collection of stereoscopic or mid-century design equipment.
