Here - after all the Pizza - is a Rollei question:
Can a (modified) Rolleikin adapter be used for making 56 x 36mm(?) Panoramas on 35mm film with a Rolleiflex TLR. I guess they would have to be verticals (portrait orientation) given the way the film runs through the camera. Anyone tried this?

Never tried it but you could make it work, even with the camera in a vertical position.


The only thing you would have to do is set the angle change between shots to a smaller number of degrees,- should make a nice panorama, but you would have about twice the number of shots to stitch together compared to using full-frame 6 cm negatives or slides.
