P3D A camera to twin?

Take a look at this camera:

http://www.slip.net/~dvint/sales/minolta2.jpg

This is a 110 cartridge camera that has full through the lens viewing,
manual focus, zoom 25-60mm, macro, shutter speeds, fstops and exposure
compensation. It also had a mechanical cable release.

The body is setup so the lenses would be about 4" apart on the horizontal
and 2"+ when mounted vertically.

The 110 film format must have been as large as the viewmaster format. 

This camera was a complete unit, I know that Pentax made a version that had
interchangeable lenses.

Just a thought anyway. Talk about Kodak and the film companies orphaning
products and formats, this is one that didn't last long! I originally
bought this camera to carry while biking. At the time all the 35mm point'n
shoots didn't exist.
