: Addendum to last message - it is 35 mm SLR that I
: am interested in taking panoramic photos with.
: Thanks

There is a nice Hasselblad PanX camera that can take both "normal" 35mm shots and true panoramic and in the same roll, that is, you can change format with a lever at any time. I recently had one in my hands and it feels very nice. The lenses are top, the viewfinder is highly acceptable and so on. I believe it was really built by Fuji for Hasselbad under their agreed upon standards.

It has gotten mixed reviews. There has been some complaining on light fall-off in the corners of the negatives and/or overly bright in the negative's center. Your best bet would be to test drive one of these babies, they are not inexpensive. Maybe you could rent one for a day.

Have a great time :-)
