Re: [photo-3d] Projection of MF Stereo Slides

["don lopp" <dlopp@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I was referring to slides seen through a decent viewer both 35 and M F . I
have not been able to take a projector with me when I go on my travels. I
think those who I have compared M F and 35mm have not had access to a decent
M F viewer or First class slides Mr Spicer in Australia does produce First
class slides but I dont know whether he has a first class viewer, I hope he
does . I , as most , do not have access to a good stereo projector. I will
never forget seeing your hyperv view of a 747 ,that was stereo at its best .
