philspectrum Posted January 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 Hi Digitalfotostudio, i found that link too, - but it is an even uglier website than mine, - by a long long way ! below is the reply I sent, - but I would still love to hear of and 1st hand renticular 3d printing experience from any minilabhelp members. Thanks Phil My Reply to my customer: Hi Debs what you are looking for is anyplace that offers 'renticular printing' it's the process of creating a print with a plastic lined lens over the front that shows different versions of the same image from different viewpoints. I have been recommended a place in Canada http://www.snap3d.com/s_3d_consum_pr.html there was another place called Snap 3d but their web site is dead, and I have heard no good news about them for years...... There is a forum which might be helpful, thou their last post was in 2007 http://forums.steves-digicams.com/printing-general/46828-3d-companies.html If I can find out more I will let you know, - until then I think it is Canada snap3d at $2.80 per 4x6 is your only option - but at least the dollar is weak! I am going to PMA - the industry trade annual trade show in CA next month, - and know that there will be China based companies offering Renticular printing, - I will find out what I can for you. Finally, A Suggestion ! - there is loads of cheap/free 3d software about that will take 2 images, - typically a left foot, and a right foot image, - and make them into a red/green 3d image that looks wierd/great through the funny glasses. ( we sell kits is Spectrum for about a tenner) why not just c41 process and scan the negs, - then play around with 3d software and funny glasses ? Hope you find what you are looking for (in 3D) Phil Rigby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fotoman369 Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 I think it's Lenticular! That might help your search? As far as processing the last place I heard of was Western Europe! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magenta Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 I saw some of the trade samples that Tony Laurence was showing for this process in the late 70's. He had a poster size shot of 7 up been poured into a glass full of ice that filled up as you walked past it. The city poured millions into it along with Timex who made the cameras up in Scotland. Ho hum.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
