The windows were not that close. But one gets used to it. I also started with a Rollei, where one is constantly looking down, looking up, looking down,etc.... By the time I was 8 years old, I carried my own water with them. By then I also had a fair sense that technology required a certain amount of attentiveness. I used a rollei half a dozen time this past 2 weeks, and I used a view camera 5 times this past 10 days, one also look down (reflex hood), looks up, etc.... None of that fussiness has ever bothered me. I do get bothered with dragging around a tripod, though. Almost got a gyro once, but that's impossible with a view camera. S.d.
