The TDC Stereo Colorist was introduced in 1954 as a competitor in the stereo market to the popular Stereo Realist.


Camera Detail

Both the Stereo Colorist I and the Stereo Colorist II were made in the 1950s in Germany by Bodensee Kamerawerke for Three Dimension Company, a subsidiary of Bell & Howell.

They are designed to use 35mm color reversal (slide) film. The format of the picture is the 5p (five perforations of 35mm film) that was used in the Stereo Realist.

While the "Stereo Colorist I" is scale focusing, the "Stereo Colorist II" has an integrated rangefinder. Otherwise they are the same. They both have 35mm f/3.5 Trinar lens made by Rodenstock. It's a 3-element Cooke triplet.

Stereoscopy

The stereo camera creates a 3D effect by taking two pictures simulataneously at eye width apart. When the two pictures are viewed in a designated holder which forces the each eye to view the respective slide individually, a 3D effect is simulated.
