How to Shoot 35mm Panoramic with a Medium Format Camera Mamiya RZ 67 Pro II

The panoramic 35mm film camera is a coveted piece of photography equipment! Without the funding to afford one, you might feel like getting one is a pipe dream. However, if you have access to a a medium format camera and a 3d printer, you might just be able to convert one into a panoramic 35mm film camera!
In this video, I show off my method for turning my Mamiya RZ67 medium format film camera into a 35mm panoramic camera!

Wow, you are back and outside :) In the past I was tempted to get Mamiya, but ended up with Hasselblad 501, which would not give me such nice panoramas ;)

[@JudeStreicherPhoto]

That's right! Back out and breathing fresh air again! Haha! Oh, I would love to get my hands on a Hasselblad! The Mamiya is great, but it's HUGE in comparison!

Great video, thanks! I'm definitely trying this. As I'm typing this I'm looking at a Horseman film back to see how I can make it work 😊.

[@JudeStreicherPhoto]

Thank you! And yeah, I highly recommend trying this out! How long would a 35mm be on the back of a 4x5??

[@philipdahl9001]

@@JudeStreicherPhoto I loaded film into my 6x9 horseman back this afternoon so I'll get out tomorrow to take a few pics. A 6x12 back would be fun to put 35mm film into! Dear Santa.........

Great job there Jude, on your Panoramic conversion. Loved the results. Just picked up some FP4. Hope I get as nice results as you did. No pano shots though👍👍.

[@JudeStreicherPhoto]

I really appreciate the encouragement! I love FP4! I've been lucky enough to test it in 35mm, 120, and 4x5! In all cases, I'm getting great results!

[@brianbeattyphotography]

dude. was just wonder the other day what you've been up do. nice work!

[@JudeStreicherPhoto]

Thank you! Yeah, I've been sitting on this video going back and forth whether or not to post it since May... been a busy summer... an actual new video will be out next Wednesday!

[@brianbeattyphotography]

@@JudeStreicherPhoto nice! I noticed there weren't any leaves. I was thinking man... must be a late summer up there in ID haha.

[@dinofio3001]

wow great video and such amazing photos, you truly inspired me to try this out. I have an RB67 and have access to a 3D printer. I’d really appreciate it if you could share the link to the finder mask so that I could print it out and try this myself thanks in advance and keep up the good work 👍

[@JudeStreicherPhoto]

I really appreciate the kind words and encouragement! Yes! Please try this out for yourself! I don't know if links will share properly, but try this out: www.thingiverse.com/thing:4103307 Let me know if things work out well!

[@JudeStreicherPhoto]

There's also these other two designs that may work if you have the RB67 (I have the RZ) www.thingiverse.com/thing:5215445 www.thingiverse.com/thing:5803643

[@dinofio3001]

wow thank you so much for your replies! I will definitely try out the 2 masks you sent for the RB67 specifically for mine. Once I have the chance to print them out and try this, I'll make sure to come back here and share the results Cheers!

[@PictureSizeDoesMatter]

Excellent. Did you crop out the sprocket holes?

[@JudeStreicherPhoto]

Yes, I did. I couldn't decide if they distracted from the photo or not, but I think in hindsight, I actually prefer the photos with sprockets.

[@mattwenn3159]

do you have any info on the 3D print files you used? Particularly the guide you drop in the viewfinder

[@JudeStreicherPhoto]

For sure! Here's a link to a pattern that works with the RZ www.thingiverse.com/thing:4103307
