The
camera rig consisted of two 35mm motion picture cameras configured
for stereoscopic recording. The cameras were fitted with wide-angle
lenses and 60 frame-per-second motors. The rig was on a motorized
tripod which rotated once per minute. The entire system weighed 500
pounds but was relatively portable. It is shown here filming in Timbuktu.
