Description:
Abstract:

My present invention has for its object to provide an improved panoramic camera in which different portions of the sensitized surface, such as film, are successively exposed to the action of the rays of light passing through the lens, said lens preferably rotating upon a vertical axis coincident with its center or at the point where the ray s of light cross; and it consists in certain improvements in the casing whereby the film may be readily applied and removed and to certain improvements in shutter mechanism and also to certain details of construction.

Claim:

In a panoramic camera, the combination with the front board having a front opening, and a rearwardly-extending top piece there-on, rearwardly-extending boards secured to the front board curved at the rear ends to form a film-support, and open-sided film-chambers at the opposite ends of said sup-port, and motor devices for operating the lens-tube mounted on the extension of the front board, of the removable casing embodying the rear and the top, bottom and side pieces connected thereto, said side and bottom pieces cooperating with the front board, and the top cooperating with the rear edge of the top piece on the front board.
