I am not sure of how they actually develop the stuff but you say they 
can be effected by the next image, doesn't the developer have a mask
for the half frames, which would prevent this problem. All I know is
that the prints I get back practically speaking don't have that 
problem that I can notice. I see this problem only when I use a
pair of single use cameras, not with lent cameras.
Yea the view-magic would add about $40 dollars to the total price
tag, but it is still under $100 for the package. If it would be
made on a larger scale, and made in an easier package to manufacter
I am sure it could be priced for $25. Thus $35 for the camera and
$25 for mass produced viewer equals $60.
