My son is now 13 and started about 4-5 years ago. He has been 
shooting stereo almost as long as I have. I started him out on 
taped together disposables, then moved up to reusable 
disposables that were rubber-banded on a piece of aluminum 
angle and now he uses twinned Olympus XA's that we bought at 
my first NSA Convention from Joel Alpers at Rocky Mountain 
Memories.

He got to be really good at firing both shutters at the same 
time with the disposables - even getting moving water and such 
in near perfect synch.

He shoots prints and views them with the ViewMagic over/under 
viewer. He took some to his 5th grade class for show and tell 
and all the kids (and teachers) were amazed. But, as usual, no 
one was a convert.

That's all for now,
