P3D More on the Loreo/Argus/Discover Channel 3D

Sorry, I got on a bit of a tangent in my first posting about the Loreo/Argus
3D camera.

The Loreo was notorious for picking up extra reflections that would often
appear in prints. Supposedly, the Argus-incarnation was suppose to have
addressed these issues, so I bought one. 

Unfortunately, I found no improvement on stray reflections. 

The camera has modest specs (fixed focus, simple lenses, fixed shutter
speed), but it takes fairly sharp photos if you don't get stray reflections.

The good thing about the Loreo/Argus is that the mirrors are front-surfaced.
Some companies (Franka, a Russian company, and a Chinese company) offer
attachements, but they use inferior rear-surfaced mirrors...totally useless.
