T3D PePAX Forever

"PePax was common thinking in the thirties...  Anyhow, as charming as the idea
is, when you do the geometry, it doesn't work.  For a more complete
explanation, see Ferwerda or Piper."

     The way I understand it, PePax *does* work! :=)  Of course, it only works
at a single distance, one point even. :=(

     So you'd get a "natural" look with PePax settings used for a telephoto of
a bird's nest in a niche in a cliff rock face. The percent distance from the
front of the nest to the rock face begins to approximate a "point" distance if
far enough away. Or a statue on top of a building.

     In general non-ortho can't be made "natural" though it can be made
pleasing. I think PePax is a place to start when using varied lens separations
and lengths.
