I don't know about the Mamiya 7, but I'm fairly certain that there would be
no problems in the old Pentax 67-it's a manual brick and very reliable. 
As for Panoramic, I'd suggest the soviet designed and currently Ukrainian
made Horizont Panoramic camera. You can get one from Kalimex for around
$400-US dollars. The early versions leaked lots of light, but I believe
(hope!) quality control has improved in recent months. In fact I believe our
list administrator and owner shoots IR with one!
