Panorama from Mt Eliza

"By 1901 he was almost certainly using a Kodak Panorama No. 4 camera released in 1899, or the No. 1 of 1900. These new, easy to manage panoramic cameras used roll film and had a rotating lens to capture between 112 to 142 degree views. The Panorama camera had a curved back while the later and larger Kodak Cirkut camera, patented in 1904 and marketed by Kodak until 1941, was a professional tool. The Cirkut camera rotated on a small turntable at speeds set by selecting the size of several cogwheels and it captured 180 degrees, making it ideal for the photographing of sports events and school groups."
