    Improve your
    View-Master Stereo Projection Experience with
    NEW Polarizing Filters
    for the Stereomatic 500
    It is relatively easy to replace the polarizing
    filters in your View Master Stereomatic 500 Stereo Projector.  Simply
    remove the top cover (one thumb screws at the bottom) and then unscrew two
    large screws that hold the reel advance mechanism.  The polarizing
    filters are part of this assembly as seen  in the picture.
    One question in many people’s mind is “how
    do I know if I need new filters or not?”  All plastic polarizing
    filters deteriorate through time and under the intense heat of the light
    bulbs. If you notice “ghosting” then it is possible that you need
    new filters (note: ghosting can be caused by other factors like  the
    screen or the photographic emulsion of the film – ghosting means that the left
    eye sees part of the right image and the right eye sees part of the right
    image, i.e. the polarization is not good).
    Here is a simple test anyone can do to test
    polarizing filters.  Cross the filter with a pair of viewing polarizing
    glasses until it gets as dark as possible and look at a bright light source,
    such as a panel of fluorescent lights.  If the picture is overall dark
    (deep blue, as in the left picture above) then the filters are good.  If
    the picture is light then the filters are no good.  Notice that in the
    picture on the right, polarization is reduced in the area heated by the light,
    vs. the one covered by the metal holder.  I have done this test above for
    the polarizers of the TDC projector but the idea is the same for any
    polarizing material (including viewing glasses)
    I hope you enjoy stereo projection as much as I
    do… I carry a variety of projection related products in my ebay store, like
    glasses and other polarizing filters.  If you have any questions, feel
