Test Roll in DIY Wide Angle 6x12 Camera

The first two rolls through this camera produced a couple of strips of pure black images due to a hard to find light leak. Once found and cured, these images were coaxed out of the camera.

Steve - glad to see you have managed to get the camera completed

The panoramic view should work well on the wide open landscapes of the coastal fringes.

Good luck

It's not quite finished but is at a stage where it can take pictures (obviously!). I'm going to make a new back plate out of oak so it matches the rest of the body but I'm pleased that it works and will probably use it in this state a few more times.


Steve.
