Well Mark, you managed to only make your camera system foolproof, rather
than damnfoolproof.  ;-)  ;-)

I am working on a patent for a pendulum viewfinder mask that will rotate
down and block the viewfinder when the stereo camera is tilted to the
vertical orientation.  I am considering putting an etched see through
message on the mask that will show "Objects in viewfinder will not
appear in stereo at all" through the finder.

Why,....I have even heard the story of one P3D celebrity that did the
very same vertical camera orientation with their Nimslo!  ...Now, who
was that?...  ;-)
