I was reading the Widelux was also developed in 1948 in Japan, and was curious whether Soviets copied Japanese or vice versa or these were two independent developments?
Cheers,

Panoramic cameras were long known in photography área.
here a Cylindrograph of 1895 uses the same system.

Sorry. In English:
Everything was stolen invented before us.
The original phrase ("Âñ¸ óæå óêðàäåíî äî íàñ.") is from the one famous Russian comedy film, see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Y_and_Shurik%27s_Other_Adventures

| Thank you Luiz, I guess my question was more to the fact that these were the first "Swing-lens" cameras as far as I know, so whenever FT or Widelux are mentioned, someone always says one is the copy of the other and they are used interchangeably.. i was just wonder whether there was any truth to that.. |

SEE
http://www.photographyhistory.com/CS07/bellpanorama.html.
from David Silver.
the pivoting lens is not new. Archimedes 4th Centuri BC told about its possibilities and Al-Hazen 1200 year described it in his stereoscopic notations of the eye.
Several important uses were done after this principle.
There are several Picture of Rio de Janeiro taken by Marc Ferrez in panoramic mood on rigid glass plates 40 cm x 100 cm around 1880 in the museum of Instituo Moreira Salles. A curious metal French câmera wheighitng around 300 kg took those extraordinary pictures.
A curious Russian adaptation using Zorki cameras was built by Pankovitch and I posted it in our forum. Rolleiflex and Flexaret used
this same basis to construct discrete panoramas.
I developed a device to be used in conjunction with Lubitel in order to take up to 360º pictures in one take.
best regards.
