P3D Re: Sticking with beamsplitter

["Gary Nored" <gnored@xxxxxxx>]

Well I still use a beam splitter now and then. It's easy to give folks a
Loreo viewer, shoot color-neg film, and get quick-n easy dupes for everyone.
Much more trouble for twin lens systems.

I also use it when I want higher shutter speeds than my Realist allows.
Works fine -- again with print viewing.

My Pentax splitter brought me to 3D. It no longer gets used for everything,
but it's perfect for some situations. But then I also use a point-n-shoot, a
4x5 view camera, twin-35's, and a couple of Realists (one for color and one
for black and white).
