The San Francisco / Bay Area's Club for Stereo Photography Enthusiasts



3D-Con 2020 Presentation

More will be added after the talk

There are a lot of overlapping images and some animations, so run the presentation with speaker’s notes. Google Slides Presentation

Link to the recording of the presentation
Also, Dr. T (George Themelis) did a fantastic presentation on using flash at the 2017 3D-Con. Really worth reading his presentation. I updated slide #4 based on this.

Here are the images that were used in the presentation.

This is going to be an semi-unorganized dump of links to things mentioned in the presentation. I’ll add more and clean it up over the next week or so.
