Rotational Cameras |
|
Rotational Panoramic Cameras can shoot a full 360 degree field of view, and more. The perspective is one of the observer looking from the center out while turning around in a circle. As the camera moves the film must also move in the direction and at the precise speed of the moving image. The exposure is through a small slit that wipes the image on the film. Cirkut Panoramic Cameras have been around since the early 1900s. They were sold in sizes that shoot roll film from 5 inches to 16 inches wide. The #10 Cirkut Panoramic Camera is still in wide use today by professional photographers. Their huge negatives are usually printed by the contact method.
Can't afford to pay that much? Don't worry, build your own LarScan from recycled camera parts. They really work!
