stereographer singular

Morphology

stereographer = stereograph (semi-transparent) = stereo + graph + er

The word is a regular agent noun built from the technical base 'stereograph', but that base is specialized rather than everyday vocabulary.

Etymology

Stereographer joins stereo- meaning 'solid' or 'three-dimensional' and -grapher meaning 'one who makes images', as in photographer. So a stereographer creates and manages 3D pictures for film or photography.
