ABSTRACT:
A camera for taking true three-dimensional photographs in which the camera includes a housing having a lenticulated screen for focusing the image of an object on a plurality of locations on a photographic film. The screen and film are mounted in fixed positions at one end of the housing and light rays from an object to be photographed enter an opening in the housing near the opposite end thereof. A beamsplitter divides the incoming light rays and directs a portion of the light rays onto a mirror which causes the light rays to converge and to be reflected back onto the beamsplitter and then toward and through the lenticulated screen to the film. In one embodiment, the mirror is a concave mirror; in a second embodiment, the mirror is a convex mirror. The only moving part of the camera is the shutter, preferably a curtain shutter.
