- Hmm, I believe Pop Photo Mag discussed how those panoramic images are
- made on the negative. They basically mask off a portion of the top
- and bottom edge of a standard 35x24mm negative image. At least that
- is how its done with the panorama kit for maxxum cameras. Since the
- frame is still 35mm wide I'm sure they can fit it in the CD with spare
- room.
