Forgot to mention:

A few months ago I saw a stereo panorama camera on Discovery
Channel, using (guess what) 70mm perforated film. Not just a
swing-lens 150 degree something thing, but a true 360 degree
rotating film camera. Projection was stunning: they put a binocular
viewer on a tripod in the middle of the room, and by turning the
tripod head around, you where within the original image.
I believe it was made/organized in the UK/Europe, not in the US.
About US$30,000 I believe....8-))
