Well, actually....did you know there were slides with a bubble-level
in it?
(I vaguelly recall even a thermo-sensing slide, with changing colors
indicating temperature....either or both types are *very* rare)
(and temperature+windspeed should be mandatory, along with GPS-data
of course)
(how else can one analyse the effect of tremor & wind on image-blur?)
