I'll have to catch that one again; it's been years - I have a feeling they
were too far away for good stereo (should've gone hyper!)...they were
probably so far up the ants looked like ants (sorry, couldn't resist)

I wonder how many 3D cameras ended up in movies?  Much more recently, Julie
Brown used a Nimslo (or Nishika?) in "Earth Girls are Easy".  Quote:
