No. 10 Cirkut Camera,

[Martin Henson]

The Cirkut is a rotating panoramic camera of the type known as "full rotation". It was patented by William J. Johnston in 1904 and manufactured by Rochester Panoramic Camera Company starting in 1905; during that same year, the company was acquired by Century Camera Co. (which itself was owned by Eastman Kodak at the time).[1] The manufacture of the camera continued through 1949.

Enjoyed that Martin. I would have liked to see how he went about developing such a long piece of film - see saw in a dish perhaps.

I love to watch this kind of thing (ie old tech ways of doing things), even though I have little idea of what he actually did. I'm glad that someone is still doing this (even though it is not for me).

As regards the actual photo, for me, the place was so photogenic, with so many photos possible, as suggested by the video, that he seems to have wasted the opportunity - or at least not maximised it.
