If I remember correctly, as it has been 20 years now, I used this camera on a tripod to try to do a 180 deg shot by panning the camera a prescribed distance to get an albeit crude panorama shot from several consecutive frames. I also remember it worked fairly well with a little practice and if I managed to keep the camera the same level for each shot that made up the panorama.





This was the time before today's digital panoramic stitching and I did not want to spend the money on an expensive Widelux camera or on the rather uncommon for here and unreliable Soviet Horizont camera back then.



Filing the film frame never interfered with the camera's mechanics. The length was about 40mm which was the exact length needed to eliminate the frame spacing on the negative but not overlap the frames.If I remember correctly, as it has been 20 years now, I used this camera on a tripod to try to do a 180 deg shot by panning the camera a prescribed distance to get an albeit crude panorama shot from several consecutive frames.
