Possibly because the lens separation on a Revere is a bit more hyper than
on a V-M Personal (assuming that's the camera you're using).  Also possibly
because the focal length of the lens is slightly telephoto -- in other words,
you may find yourself stepping back so far to frame a shot that you're then
too far away from the foreground subject to get "good 3-D".  Unfortunately,
these two design characteristics work _against_ each other.  If you ever get
the chance to use a V-M Mark II, you may be happier with its results.
