This was my point so many months ago when I said that the Kodak stereo camera was too user friendly, too light, too easy to advance, and just too darned easy to use. It made me burn up film with no increase in my gems-per-exposure ratio. See, the clunkyness of the Stereo Realist 3.5 is just what Ansel ordered.
