ABSTRACT:
There is provided a frame structure for stereoscopic imaging. First and second cameras may be mounted to the structure to respectively record first and second images which may be combined to produce a three-dimensional image. The frame structure comprises a casing sized and shaped to receive a beam splitting device therein and first and second camera supports mounted to a sidewall of the casing for respectively holding the first and second cameras. Each camera support comprises an outer frame defining an internal cavity to receive a corresponding camera therein, and attaching means which comprise at least three connecting portions contacting the casing sidewall and positioned around an opening of the casing sidewall. This configuration substantially prevents deformation of the frame structure due to bending.
