Thank you for this link.  I have not seen this work before.  This is the direction that I hope to follow with my own photography someday.  (I know- I have a way to go...)

Thanks :)

I like what he said about the freedom you get from making your own camera..it's a great feeling

I have a LOT of fun making/modifying cameras...sometimes to get a certain kind of image...or just because some object would make a fun camera ( I've done coconuts a few times )

Most excellent! Now I wonder where in blazes he can get film that size to fit?

plenty of places for film - but look up the price for filmholders - that'll make you feel queasy :)

I'm making a 6cm x 24cm panoramic now...the lens will actually cover wider..but this way I get 3 shots per 120 roll

I'm thinking of being able to shift the lens around too..

not as big..but still pretty fun

hopefully I can test it tomorrow
