Maybe some kind of mirror attachment (aka beamsplitter) can be 
put on front.  I have a 3x4 Speed Graphic and a cheapo 'splitter
($26 from Porter's) that may work or give me some ideas about
creating a much better one with front-surface mirrors.  Perhaps
I'll practice a bit with the household Polaroid camera before
hassling with the SG.  Any experience out there with these
larger sizes of mirror attachments?  The info for the 'splitter
I have said it would work for 2 1/4 rollfilm cameras but I
haven't tried it - the results on a 35mm camera were not good
enough for me to continue.  None of my MF cameras are SLR's so
I would waste some film getting the attachment right.
