P3D argus

[ray dobbins <ray_dobb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I just got an argus and have tested it out and I like it quite a lot (with
limitations)
the images are about as sharp as any other medium priced (arounds $100)
amateur camera and the processing and viewing are very much easier than
than any alternative I can think of .  Very convenient and simple  it is a
snapshot or people camera, great for picturs of kids. friends, or even
moody slightly soft focus portraits (I like the effect I get using indoor
window light and the flash (the flash is weak nothin more than eight feet
away is properly lit, but I like darkish background as long as theres
enough light in back to provide depth information) since the flash is
reflected and spread by a two inch reflective surfacce it is a klittle more
diffused than a straight flash.   fine for urban scenes , I suspect it wont
be much good for landscapes.   It makes for pretty good computer anaglyphs,
you can add a little apparent sharpness with digital filters.
