this could be highly interesting if the mount can be exchanged. 2nd
i have signals fromk kmz-zenit that there will be a digital horizon(rotating pancam). we will see if its a 360 or a swinglens((short rotation). with changing lens and 360-wow. i would only miss a 24mm shiftlens(135)if its 4/3 we would need a 12,13 or 14mm shiftlens( fx2) 24, 26(roundshot 65/70/220-rsp 65el) equivalent) or 28mm.
but stitching noshift and shiftshotshould be no problem i was told. i will try it out with my roundshot. rectiliniar superwideangle-shots-up to appr. 160 degr can easily be created. using panoramafactory or altostorm rectiliniar and other software.

It's a bit offtopic here but the rumors floating around about Russian manual focus digital SLR Zenit N1 development (by the same company where widely known Zenitar 16mm fisheyes were built).

It will be "modular photographic system" capable of accepting wide range of SLR and RF lenses (using appropriate converters) and will be based on the 4/3 sensor with no LCD. External LCD could be attached to change rarely used settings on the go and shoot video (with the mirror locked up). Size of the body will be roughly the same as Pentax auto 110.

Zenit officials have told that the development process will take all the year 2007.
