P3D Re: Portrait oriented 41x101 slide mounts

I was just sketching out just what the 2x3 aspect ration looks like and I strongly
agree with Mike C here.   2x3 is way too narrow.  Something closer to 4x5 would be
much more appealing.  That would be 22x27.5 mm apertures, which would give you a lot
of stereo window adjustment room, and be perfect for unmodified 50's viewers (I'm
assuming other 50's viewers are similar to the Kodaslide).

least attractive attributes of standard 35 mm cameras)?  Whats wrong with the classic
4x5 ratio, or anything else?"
