Anamorphic panoramas

One method of shooting panoramas I don't see mentioned on the list is using
an anamorphic lens on a still camera.  I have an Iscorama anamorphic with a
bayonet adaptor which fits onto my Nikon 35mm cameras.  This does not
couple with the camera's exposure meter so I use a hand-held meter.  The A
lens is 1.5x compression so the projected slides (using the same A lens
without the camera adaptor) are half as wide again as conventional 35mm
projected slides.

Is anyone else on this list using an A lens this way?
