Interocular Separation for Close-up Photography

(Contributed by Doug Eernisse)

From “Stereo Realist Manual” by W. D. Morgan and H. M Lester about 1954, p. 285:


Interocular Separation for Close-up Photography
Lens-to-Subject Distance Total Lens Separation Scale Pos. for Pointer A Scale Pos. for Pointer B Diopter Lens
30” 2.0” -1.0” +1.0” 1
27” 1.8” -0.9” +0.9” 1
24” 1.6” -0.8” +0.8” 1
21” 1.4” -0.7” +0.7” 1
18” 1.2” -0.6” +0.6” 2
15” 1.0” -0.5” +0.5” 2
12” 0.8” -0.4” +0.4” 3
9” 0.6” -0.3” +0.3” 4
6” 0.4” -0.2” +0.2” 5

Pointer “A” is directly behind middle of left lens. Pointer “B” is directly behind middle of right lens. “0.0” is half-way between them. Use Series V Portra Lenses: +1, +2, or +3, singly or in combination. You need a cap which fits tightly over one lens at a time for the double exposure that you will take.

Note: The original chart had entries up to f/250 - I have shortened it to a more useful range.
