Seitz Roundshot 24/35 & Digital-1

[Willem-Jan Markerink <w.j.markerink@xxxxx>]

Mmm....I must retract that comment that a *friend* send me that 
Voigtlaender scan....afterall, who can send only that article when on 
the *same* A4 page another article mentions two new Seitz 
Roundshot's, one digital, one for 35mm film....;-))

Roundshot Digital-1:
4mm lens, 360 degree, 2700 pixels tall image (no physical size
given, neither vertical angle of view, but the text mentions
'extreme wide-angle lens'), direct USB data upload to PC/laptop.
Auto-exposure and auto-exposure-adjustment. Scary price sadly, 
US$7000.

Roundshot 24/35:
24mm lens, normal 35mm film, build-in control (exposure?), and 'it is 
possible to make 360 degree panorama's....this very compact camera 
will cost US$3250'....the drawing of the top-side of the camera shows 
a very different shape than the previous Roundshot 35's and 70mm/5", 
almost like a Horizon 202
