The invention relates to a method for correcting the zoom setting and/or the vertical offset in an image assembled from two sub-frames of a stereo film, wherein the one sub-frame is provided by a first camera of a camera rig and the second sub-frame is provided by a second camera of the camera rig, wherein a vertical offset is changed via a change in the pitch setting, wherein, during the operation when recording the stereo film, a difference between the present zoom-results in the first sub-frame relative to the second sub-frame is measured and/or a vertical offset of the image points present in the first sub-frame in relation to those corresponding image points in the second sub-frame is measured and, on the basis of this information, correction values are calculated, with which the zoom difference and/or the vertical offset is reduced, given appropriate application to the zoom and/or pitch setting. The invention also relates to a controlling means or regulating means of a camera rig having two cameras, which is configured to carry out said method.

Method for correcting the zoom setting and/or the vertical offset of frames of a stereo film and control or regulating system of a camera rig having two cameras

A method of aligning the optical axes of two cameras, wherein the cameras are parts of a camera apparatus and the two cameras can be used for producing 3D films, wherein plural steps are automatically run through. The invention also relates to a method of controlling a camera rig comprising two cameras for producing 3D films according to the table of values according to such method, wherein during shooting upon zooming at least one camera is automatically moved via camera motors. The invention also relates to a camera rig comprising two cameras that are preferably juxtaposed or superimposed having a control which realizes a method as explained.
