I have too many projects going on at the same time. I finally got around to scanning this pano test. It's a seven panel stitch that takes in a little over 180 degrees. There are a few little flaws with the stitch but all in all it came out well. Particularly since the little girl wasn't in the original pan. I finished the pan and then she appeared. I was still set up so I swung the camera around and reshot that frame. I have a 360 degree pano shot at Freeland Park in a little different location. I will scan that next. I should be able to make that one into a Quicktime VR. I used the Salut-S with the 65mm lens (41mm equivalent). It all worked as I hoped. I've been using some free outdated Ilford FP4 for testing. This should have been in color. My Polaroid Automatic 250 arrived today that I'm going to convert into 4x5. Tomorrow I go up to Blaine's to see his Polaroid J66. I'm thinking of converting one like it to 6x12 and 6x17. I still have to relube two Jupiter 8s and a Jupiter 9, repair my 5x7 back and clean some 5x7 sheet fim holders. At least my ground glass for the 5x7 won't be here for another 3 to 4 weeks. I probably should be ready when it does come. If only reality didn't keep getting in the way.
