That does sound perfect.  Or at least close enough to look at.  If
anyone can recall this fellow's name and/or contact information, I would
greatly appreciate it.  I would like to explore stereo shooting
possiblities with our new Fuji MX-2900 without having to use the "cha
cha" method or needing to buy another camera - althought the lens barrel
attatchment thingie is rather odd on this model.  Not really sure if
it'll work but the camera does have a through the LCD manual focus
option I can play with.
