    Hey! Way back in the day I once worked at Disneyland when Jan & Dean performed on the quaint little Plaza Pavilion stage. Even spoke with them between shows. (True story.)

    I'm almost certain I remember seeing them using this camera! (Veracity is left as an excercise for the student.)

    [Edit: Yes, Jan Berry in 1966, I believe. Serious head injuries. The intimate Disneyland performance in the mid-70s was, IIRC, an "off-Broadway" tune-up for their eventual return to live performances. The out-of-the-way place was so packed with Park employees that none of the guests could even get close. 7000+ employees mysteriously all took their lunch breaks at the same time...

    And I swear I saw this camera that night!]

    "The richness of the experience that occurs when one is exposed tangibly to a subject, material, or process is unmatchable in the abstract... Thus, when 'touch it,' 'taste it,' smell it' become the watchwords, the results are most often extraordinary. Equally extraordinary are the lengths to which people will go to avoid [that] experience."
