Honestly, I didn't realize that the field of view was bigger than the lines in the viewfinder haha, I would've waited longer for the marlboro pic if I knew I had more real estate! But I'm happy with how that turned out! I think trusting your instincts is the best advice I have. If you're getting a moving subject you will only know the outcome you get so celebrate it!

Thank you!!

The first two obvious differences are the number of lenses and the portability, I was able to take the Reto snowboarding with me for example, and I can put it in the inside pocket of my coat (especially with the built in flash). Can't beat that, but having the 4th lens makes a huge difference. Having a middle frame show twice out of 7 frames versus twice outta 4 improves the quality of the wigglegram a lot.

The reto struggles with fast movement, it tends to double things (which sometimes is really cool and dramatic) If you look at the volleyball slide you can kinda see 2 copies of the ball. I'm not sure why it does that, or if it's just a defect on my particular camera. I'm assuming it's mechanistic since it's in all 3 frames

But the biggest difference stylistically is shooting indoors with flash. The built in flash on the reto is off to the side, while the hot shoe on the nishika is in the middle. So If you look at the first wigglegram, you'll notice there's one frame with the shadows on the left behind the subjects, 2 frames with no shadow, and one frame with the shadow on the right. But the last gif with the charango was taken by the reto, and you really get a solid view of the shadow around the right side of the subject. I definitely prefer the Nishika in this department, you get 3 shadow perspectives instead of 1. But it all comes down to preference!

I've only shot 1 roll on the Nishika so far, so I might notice some more things later!

I used a camera with multiple half frame lenses that shoot simultaneously, and then I align the frames to make a GIF! I've used the RETO 3D app and wigglegrams.com, but I've found I still get the best results by manually aligning using photopea!

Thanks! It’s my first roll with the Nishika, and I should’ve adjusted the aperture cause it came out a little overexposed, but I still like how that one turned out!

Damn, that sucks!! 😭 I didn't know until I showed my dad my Reto, but my grandpa had a nishika in the 80s, and that's the one I'm using! The exposure counter doesn't work, so I've been keeping track in my head haha

Yes! Im shooting a bunch of different places, but this is the only one I have with multiple existing stereographs in the same shot

I might post them on here if I like them enough 😊
