  15. >I am new to this group and this may be a FAQ. I consider buying a panoramic 
  16. >camera and was wondering whether anybody has experience with the Widelux F8 
  17. >(35mm) camera. I would appreciate some critical comments and advice ...
  18.  
  19. From what I have heard this camera is somewhat susceptible to mechanical
  20. breakdowns. Used with care it should be ok though. You might want to get in
  21. touch with the International Panoramic Photographers Association if you wish to
  22. communicate with a group of about 500 amateur and professional panoramic
  23. photographers. Many use Widelux cameras although I think the largest number
  24. use rotating cameras that can cover in excess of 360 degrees. 
  25.  
  26. I believe the association can be reached through Richard Fowler who lives in
  27. Orlando, Florida. If you'd like more info I can look it up for you.
