Nimslo 35mm Lenticular Camera

In 1982, the Nimslo Corporation released their flagship four-lens 3D camera. Combined with their custom lenticular developing service, they expected to revolutionize photography. Today, a Nimslo can be found for a few bucks on eBay.

The Nimslo is a finely engineered and intelligently designed point & shoot 35mm camera. Its electronic exposure performs miracles with cheap drugstore film. My Nimslo is the most fun stereo camera I own, even if its fixed focus and focal range make composition a challenge.

To create Lenticulations, I digitally scan uncut developed film, then crop, size, and align the four frames in Photoshop. A sparse JavaScript runs the animation.

My first Lenticulations were photographed with a 3-lens Kalimar, a plastic bodied camera that's really a toy.
