6×17 cm cameras with lens
Few years ago i started to build panoramic cameras with lens. In gallery below i posted some samples. They are two versions of this camera- fixed focus and with focussing helicoid. Fixed focus camera is a little less time consuming. Focus is set at infinity. This is enough for landscape and architecture photography. Focus is set at infinity. This is enough for landscape and architecture photography. Of course at higher diaphragm closer objects are also sharp. In second version you can set the focus. On the front of focussing helicoid is mounted engraved plate calibrated for infinity, 10,5,2 and 1 meter. Camera bodies are designed to use with 8/90mm Schneider Super Angulon or Fujinon SW 8/90mm lens
