The Verascope f40 was introduced about 1938, and was designed to take pairs of 24 x30mm images on 35mm film. This superseded the earlier Richard Verascope glass-plate models. Model f40 production continued through the 1950s, going through several small revisions. It is considered to be one of the better-finished stereo cameras made, though perhaps behind to the Stereo Realist.

The f40 was exported to the US where it was sold by the Chicago press-camera manufacturer Busch.
