Thanks for the response....

         So are you saying that this is a pit fall that is not correctable
in MF stereo?  If you always shoot at 2.5" then you would loose the desired
effect when things are further away then say 20 ft, right?   Is this a very
small part of the population that experiences miniturization, or a healthy
part of the population?   What a bummer!

Has any of you enthusiast experience this?  Or maybe we are the few who do
not experience it, that is why we are hooked on it??
