Camera
Conventional Panoramic
Cameras are the most popular and generally the cheapest to buy. They simply mask off the
top and the bottom of the image circle of the lens to give a long and skinny look to the
image. In reality less of the image is shown. They trick the viewer into thinking that
they are seeing a wide field of view.
Professionals use the 6x17
format, about 2 by 7 inches. 6x17 format is THE industry standard for stock panorama work.
If you are shooting stock you had better be shooting 6x17.
