I became enamored with panoramic photography last spring when a colleague from work brought in some contact prints he'd made from 6x17 negatives. He was using a Linhof and I fell in love with the very wide ratio and very wide lens combination. I couldn't afford a Linhof or Fuji then and still can't now. I found some home-brew panoramic links on medfmt.8k.com, took it from there and decided to make my own (the site is down right now for some reason.) This 6x12 project is surely just the first in a line of cameras shooting a wide ratio negative. Thanks again.
