http://www.clickherephotograph... The Fuji G617 Panoramic camera is an absolute pleasure to own and to use, although it does have a few teething problemsThis camera was first developed in Japan by the Fuji Photo Film Company in 1982 and has the ability to take print or transparency film images at a size of 6cm x 17cm which look amazing on a light table and much better when you see a print hanging on your wall.The camera accepts film that is generally used in Medium Format cameras like Hasselblad, Rollei etc and is a larger sized film than the traditional 35mm film that many photographers were using before the invention of digital photography. I do not feel that digital photography will result in the demise of film photography, at least not for sometimeMoving OnThe camera accepts two sized of film, actually the height of the film remains the same, it is actually the number of photographs available that really makes the difference. For example, on a roll of 120 sized film as a photographer you are limited to four shots per roll, and; on a roll of 220 film you are limited to eight shots per roll.To purchase this camera new can be expensive, film is expensive to purchase and so are costs involved in processing and printing. But, for some reason I keep coming back to this camera mainly as a result of the quality of the images.They are simply outstandingAdmittedly, the camera is generally not used in everyday photography unless of course you are a professional photographer, however; when this camera is used all of the minor issues are forgotten.This camera is superb, and in a way it represents for me a step back in history to a time before stitching photograph, Photoshop and other tools that can be used to enhance your images.Surprisingly, this camera actually encourages a photographer to think about what they are doing and how they would like to have the subject portrayed in their image.Sure, this camera does have a few minor issues. But, once you own one you will probably never, ever get rid of it.I am not saying that this camera is for everyone, however; if you feel that you may be interested in learning a little about this type of camera, please enjoy my video
