I commented regarding the possibility of a brand new manual Fed stereo camera:

>>I've been saying this for a long time.  It would solve all the problems 
with using 45 year old cameras.  

And Herbert Maxey responded:  

I love 45 year old and older cameras. What specific problems are you 
referring to?

I love them too, but the sad fact is that they don't work half the time.  
Innacurate shutters, light leaks, moldy lenses, etc etc.  Some are difficult 
to use with electronic flash.  Others have been beaten up over the years. 
It's actually amazing how well some models have held up, but a brand new 
manual 7P stereo camera with modern lenses at a Fed Stereo price would be 
nice......no?
