Wow! Nice site... nice photos!

Too bad most of it is in French... ...

Indeed panoramic shots simply stand out of the norm...

Hmm... he's using Provia with long exposures (1 min or more), seemingly unaffected by reciprocity failure. Ok time to try some more.

I have worked it out actually you need a 35mm lens on a 6x6 to acheive the wideness of an Xpan camera.

i reckon 21mm or so. the Xpan is realy very wide

 

[alvin]

Could 6x6/40mm at least approximate the view of the xpan's 45mm/4?

well a 40mm is almost there, but 35 would be more or less exactly,
i have some shots comparing a 45 and a 35mm and an Xpan shot.

For beginners, can always try the Horizon 202. It has a 28mm swing lens with a coverage of 120 deg. and uses a 35mm format (21 frames per 36 frame roll). It can be purchased for a fraction of the price of an X-pan.

The image quality is decent too. Should be able to print up to 8"x20" without much problem.

this horizon 202 cam...hard to use? i've been reading abt its pros and cons and it really bit me when i got to know that the winding and rewinding of the film is a BIG prob. i'm really interested abt the cam...but not to sure abt its' probs...i mean is there any other prob with that cheap pano cam?
