Here's a simple 5 minute solution I sometimes use. Just grab a couple of SLR
pentaprisms and place them over the images on a light box. careful alignment
will transpose them. A more permanent rig and be made by making a frame for
them with a spocket wheel between for control.

I don't recommend this or any transposing viewer as a permanent method for
viewing uncut rolls, as you increase the risk of scratching the rolls every
time you view. This is a pre-mounting procedure only.

sam
