Why?
There are plenty of other ways to get 65 by 24 images = crop from 6 X 7
(more choice). . .lots of good used 67's: Makinas (large, Leica-like
rangefinder with meter and folding 80mm - or 55mm - lens); Fuji 67, 6 X 9
6 X 4.5, and all the other great 6 X 4.5 choices. . .even cropping a 6 X 6
only looses 5 mm from the Xpan. But, on the other hand, it is a neat
looking camera. . .now if it only had a red dot.
