Jay's recent post of Carbi's grooming prompted me to post these two images.

It is an old picture (2006) when the Bipolar Bear, a schnauzer, was just 10 months old.

The poor quality is due to it being a digital LIAC stereo. At that time I had hoped the digital LIAC would be an answer to capturing action with a digital SLR. Well, we know how well that worked. The film LIAC was OK (poorly), but the digital version was even more limited and my digital LIAC languishes now in a drawer somewhere.

For those who don't know their ancient history, a LIAC (Lens In A Cap) is an attachment that fits directly into an SLR, in place of a lens and provides both a left an right view. It provides the two images via a mirror arrangement and consequently uses only half the imager for each view. And there is a wide, fuzzy, black septum between the views. Worse yet, the septum is off center. In effect, it uses about 35% of the imager for each view, resulting in the focal length being about 110mm. This meant that by the time you backed up far enough to get all of your subject in the frame, you were too far back to get any depth in the stereo (as you can see in this posted image) due to the LIAC's very narrow stereo base.
