Vick, I have used one on my Tele - Dust makes it a disaster. The theory is
great but in practice, it is almost impossible to remove all the dust. You
cannot see it till the film is developed - 12 exposures affected. When you
use a glass negative carrier in an enlarger, you can see any dust specks on
the board and remove them before exposure - no big deal, just a PITA - only
one print to spot. In the camera, it is too late by the time you find out...
12 prints to spot!
