Author Topic: Found, Ex Paramount 3-D Stuff, Is It Any Good? Frank Angel Film God Posts: 5305 From: Brooklyn NY USA Registered: Dec 1999 posted 01-20-2005 01:04 PM                        DAMN...you got a test loop?! Mine didn't. But from what I understand, the prints are by no means standardized and these convergence boxes need to pretty much be set up to the particular print. Nice thing about this Paramount unit is that every thing can be easily adjusted -- up, down, tilt, yawh, etc., so the test loop is probably only useful for Paramount titles.  |  IP: Logged Dick Vaughan Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1032 From: Bradford, West Yorkshire, UK Registered: Jul 2000 posted 01-20-2005 04:52 PM                        Frank is it time to form a no test loop suport group to help us through these difficult times  |  IP: Logged Gordon McLeod Film God Posts: 9532 From: Toronto Ontario Canada Registered: Jun 99 posted 01-20-2005 08:37 PM                     I have squireled away a test loop for most of the 3d titles and a always looking for more just like 70mm loops  |  IP: Logged Justin West Master Film Handler Posts: 271 From: Peoria, IL, USA Registered: Jul 2001 posted 01-27-2005 12:19 AM                     I am not even ready to discuss the inner workings of 3D systems but I did want to ask about a 3D lens I have. It is a Siriuscope model K35. Seems to be in good condition and in its own aluminum case. Can anyone advise what films this particular lens is best suited for? I did find a tech letter from Paramount Studios inside the case. Thanks!  |  IP: Logged Gordon McLeod Film God Posts: 9532 From: Toronto Ontario Canada Registered: Jun 99 posted 01-27-2005 09:48 AM                     The sirusscope lens was made for friday13th and only a few were made because they had infringed on the stereovision patent of a sawed in half two peice lens It was a better lens as it had individual focus and azimuth trims  |  IP: Logged
