Jim this is a panorama attachment that uses 120 film, rather than the 35
set up, where the panorama is 'vertical'? Looks like a nice addition and I
should look for one for one of my flex's. Do you have serial numbers etc,
or know what it is called "officially".

The 35mm attachment I have is very fiddly and really not worth the effort:
works well, but unless they stop making roll film, and that is not off the
cards, mine will stay unused ;-)

Cheers

Alastair
