Iranian Photographer awarded PSA 3D Photography Prize 

A former Iranian Young Cinema Society (IYCS) trainee has received 3D Photography Prize held by Photographic Society of America.

Faramarz Ghahremanifar confirmed the story on Saturday as his 3rd and ‘most valuable medal’ in 2016; “the 56th 3D Photography Contest gold medal was the 3rd prize; in 2000, I won a prize also for 3D photography, from Stereoscopic Society of America,” he told reporters.

3D photos shot with dual Lumix GH-2 cameras

I used two Lumix GH-2 micro four thirds cameras, and two wireless remote controls. A remote receiver was used on each camera to activate the shutter, with a single remote control transmitter. Surprisingly (to me!) the two cameras synchronized very well.

I used two of these wireless remotes. Amazon says they work with any of these cameras – Panasonic: DMC G1, G2, G3, G6, G7, G10, GF1, GH1, GH2, GH3, GH4, GX1, GX7, L1, L10, LC-1, FZ20, FZ20K, FZ20S, FZ20S, FZ30, FZ30K, FZ50, FZ50K, FZ50S, FZ100, FZ200; Leica: DigiLux 2, DigiLux 3, V-Lux 4

This image is in cross-eyed viewing format – both trains were moving in these shots:

I have used the dual Lumix GH-2 cameras before but had to manually press the shutters on both cameras at “roughly the same time” – with the manual shutter control, I could not have photographed a subject like these two moving trains.

The inter-axial lens spacing is about 6 inches or 15 cm.
