That is precisely what I've been saying...which means that the image created
by any means, by any camera, which aspect ratio requires an individual to
scan in order to capture it in the mind's eye is a panoramic image.  That
includes images made with the $8 disposable.

Hey, some folks love shooting Holgas and consider themselves photographers.
I agree that they may well be.
