One of the features of the technical camera is the ability to shift in both the horizontal and vertical directions.

The shift in the vertical is used to maintain parallel lines in buildings when you cannot shoot from the mid point of the building. Difficult when it is several stories high.

But also you can shift horizontally to stitch a wide image. This is different to using a panorama head because the camera does not rotate and hence the view does not become distorted. When joining the images in Photoshop they are just aligned on top of each other and blended together.

This was shot with a 32mm Rodenstock lens on the Cambo Wide.
It is showing a very wide angle which I guess you might need to visit the site to see how this would have been difficult any other way.

We will be enjoying a tour of the South Island this April.
Heading into some out of the way places by 4WD.

Shooting with a Phase One 645DF camera as well as a Cambo Wide DS.
Internet access willing we should be posting some images and updates.

But we would love to meet up with anyone that wishes to try either the Phase One camera
or the Cambo system.

Please get in contact so we can try to arrange a visit to your location.

There are many considerations when framing a photography and not really any specific formulae that can be applied that works in every case.
The best thing to have is a good framer who can work with you to select the options for each specific image. We use Mark Moore from Papakura Picture framers who is excellent (and patient) when helping sort through all the options.

But in a a response to a readers question, Mike Johnston posted these two articles with some more information.
