"OLD-DELFT" SCANNING STEREOSCOPE.
OLD-DELFT " SCANNING STEREOSCOPE. - Field of view can be moved in X - and Y - direction to scan 9 x 9 in. (23 x 23 cm.) photographs without shifting stereoscope or objects. System of rotating mirrors and prisms built into body of instrument. Two magnifications in ratio of 1: 3 viz. 1 ½ and 4 ½ covering wide range of power. Stereoscopic vision automatically maintained when altering magnification. Pinpoint reconnaissance obtained by switching to stronger magnification without interrupting observations. Slight differential of right-hand field of view eliminates any remaining Y-parallax in ease of tilt difference between two pictures. Similarly, differential movement in X - direction for scanning obliques. Two interpreters, each equipped with stereoscope, may view same image simultaneously.
