A panoramic camera intended for taking on a perforated film with a full width of 35mm by professional photographers. The camera is similar to S3pro but the difference is only in Shutter speeds.
Horizon-S3 U-500 is a special camera with a rotating non-intercheangable built-in lensintended for taking various panorama pictures: landscapes, interiors, sports scenes, architecture, reportings, fashion, tourism, etc., both by the amateur and professional photographers.
Advantages of the camera:
Lens with high resolution rotates during taking within the pan angle and ensures an excellent quality of image across the whole frame field. It takes place at the expense of absence of an inevitable optical distorsion which may be possible during the analogous taking when using wide angle lenses;Increased exposure time range from 1/2 up to 1/500sec, what may be better for a photographer?! Durable exposure times allow shooting under the conditions of low illumination and at night. One may have an interesting picture taking a moving object by day;
Optical viewfinder gives the possibility to define accurately the limits of the taken object. The correct position of he panoramic camera is controlled by means of the air bubble seen in the field of view of the viewfinder. Would you like to let your imagination run away? Shift the bubble up or down you will have an unusual special effect;
Body of the camera is light, it is strongly built and highly ergonomic. It was designed in such a way that one could easily hold it under the various taking conditions.
