But without a viewer the image is smaller, and this reduction is bothersome to me.  I could freeview a stereo slide, but why would I want to - it looks
tiny.  Granted, the size reduction isn't as great when freeviewing prints,
but the smallness still detracts from realism, and this bothers me more than
viewer distortion and screen dots.
