Experiences with Art Panorama 6x17? in Large Format Posted February 13, 2001 Yes, I have used one.I hired one for a job so I only had it for about 8 hours.It probably came with about a 90mm lens.I used it to shoot images for a billboard. The sceen was a roadside controlled fire backburn for a fire safety campaign.From memory I think I used Velvia.Unfortunatly I did not have time to practice with it, so the focusing was a bit hit and miss (I was not supplied with a loupe) and it was my first time using such a camera. There are no lens/film plane movements.Its quite a bulky camera.Having now had experiance with my own LF camera (a Tachihara) I would go for something with tilts & swings. <p> Regards,Phil

Yes, I have used one.
I hired one for a job so I only had it for about 8 hours.
It probably came with about a 90mm lens.
I used it to shoot images for a billboard. The sceen was a roadside
controlled fire backburn for a fire safety campaign.
From memory I think I used Velvia.
Unfortunatly I did not have time to practice with it, so the focusing
was a bit hit and miss (I was not supplied with a loupe) and it was
my first time using such a camera. There are no lens/film plane
movements.
Its quite a bulky camera.
