Hi Cliff,

My first stereo camera was a WRAY Stereographic (a GRAFLEX clone). After the
first results I was rather disapointed with the results because on both
slides there was a part of the immage out of focus. Only later (after
dismanteling the camera in an attempt to "repair" it) I learned about the
dephtmaster system. The WRAY has a a PC connection instead of a hotshoe, so
I cant't really answer your question. However there may be another problem.
If I remember well the camera was intended for use with flashbulbs alone and
has no synchronisation for electronic flash. I remember I had to
"re-synchronise" it which is possible  through a small screw inside the
camera. It is difficult to adjust though. Adjustment is critical. One 1/10
of a mm and the sync. is gone again. Took me hours. I later ordered a manual
from REEL 3D (thats how I found out about depthmaster). I'll check to be
shure tonight and I'll let you know.
Best Regards.
Patrick.
