The film is dry and the scans are in...
HP5+ in Microphen
The first shot is fairly contrasty being a sunny winter's day. I'm still getting used to the metering which left me under exposed. Thought I'd keep the film edges on.
All in all it was a lot of fun and super easy to use. Purchased some Agfa APX 100 so it will be interesting to compare.
Second photo was taken moments later behind me as a little girl sat on a WWII memorial.
A more traditional pano...
And my youngest son relaxing on our favourite wharf after a driving lesson.

It looks like it takes about almost two whole 35 frames. If I had a 50mm lens, I'd definitely try my pano kit.

I only have the 80mm. The 50mm would be interesting.

indeed very nice pictures! just a few questions,
the mamiya 7 is supposed to be used for 220 film? so did you have to modify the camera for taking 35mm film?
did you use a modified viewfinder?

Hi Ron,
The Mamiya 7 is a 120/220 6x7camera but has a special 35mm pano kit which takes 16 shots on a 36 roll.

Inside the VF there are four small marks that identify the 35mm pano view within the normal framelines.
I've got another 35mm film in it at present and am really enjoying the new 'view point'.

THanks John for all the info. Looking at your results I definitely would like to try one.

Pano frames are 24x65mm.

My maths must be mad! If a "normal" 35 mm neg is 24 mm x 36 mm and yields 36 exposures
per roll why do the pnos only yield 14 exposures when they measure only 24 x 65mm? Is the margin between frames very wide?

Nice shots, i will buy this 135mm kit later, when i first get the lens then this kit will be next in my list for sure.

The frame spacing is the same it would be for medium-format film, which is wider than 35mm. There is also a different leader length. The camera basically thinks the 35mm film is 220.

It has a very long leader length (if you are used to 35mm).
Just about to develop my first APX 100 film. Should have some shots in a couple of hours when it's dry. Heard lots of good things about APX so looking forward to the results.
