  is the larger lens opening, if pulled out, it is the smaller
  lens opening. The shutter is always closed.  If a wire release
  is desired fbr taking pictures  it- can be screwed in at E.
  For instantaneous exposures, Iever C is pressed down and
  closes automatically. These are onty taken by sunshine or
  very bright light and the sun should not shine into the lens.
  For time exposures lever T has to be pulled out all the
 way. Place the camera on a tripod or solid obiect in order
  not to move camera, and hold it with the left hand while
  the right one makes the exposure. It is very essential for
  stereoscope pictures to have the camera absolutely straight
 and this can be determined by the waterlevel in back of
  the view finder, where the air bubbles have to be centered.
  If desired, a yellow filter can be furnished at an extra cost
  of $ 2.00

tire iictirre is then shown inside the wire frame-. This_tyRefinder is the most practical made and is found on all fine
cameras.
      Transposing the pictures
To see stereoscopic the pictures have to be transposed
around. The right picture has to be on the left side and
rhe left picturJ on the right side. This is accomplished by          'inprinting   a special sterioscope printing frame. They are
iurnished for $ 1.00. The printing is done in such a way
that first the film is on the left side and the paper on the
right, and then the paper on the teft and the film on the
riitrt'side.    Anoth-er way is to cut the printed pictures           -and mount         them on card6oard,.intoor have a cardboarb with
corners where the picture fits     the corners. But then
attention has to be paid that the picture with the little
black corner is always on the left hand side.
Extra stereoscopic viewers are supplied for $ 1.25.
