  The worst distortion will happen to things that move at
right angles to the moving slit.

  Suppose a steel girder is falling downward and is perfectly
horizontal. The moving slit will record the different horizontal
parts of it at different heights, thus making it look like it
is falling at an angle. With two slits moving in opposite directions
the two resulting photos will have the girder tilted in opposite
directions. Only the centers of the two images would be vertically
aligned. I suspect it would be hard to fuse them into stereo.
