I agree.

Scenes with a wide range from shadows to highlights are more than a little common down here, especially in spring/summer.

Jeeze...didn't know so many people were still into ULF...nice to see!
I haven't don't anything but digital for awhile now...years..
Thinking about dusting off the Wisner ULF's sitting in the closet for too long now...
Personally I like the 7x17 best..small light..big long neg..whats not to like..
I cant imagine at my age taking out the 16x20...but for inside...its just sweet...
And then..there is the 210xl...

There are a lot of us out there. I still haul all of my ULF gear but each year it gets a little harder. My double wide stroller will see more use as the years roll on. Get that 16 x 20 out bid negs are great!

I think the point here is that the Korona Banquet and Panoramic cameras are different. The banquets generally do NOT have the bellows and hardware for rear extension and the panoramic models DO. Also the Banquet models are more often seen with the capability for front tilt.

Understood in full now Randy and Karl.
Thank-you for the updated clarification and explanations. Greatly appreciated!

I am very sorry about any confusion that I may have caused. Please accept my sincerest apology.

Happy shooting with your new 7x17 Randy! It certainly is a real 'Beauty'.

Best regards, -Tim.

Tilt makes sense for a Banquet camera as they were made specially for image capture of large groups of people, often from a tall tripod and tilt would be great for getting more faces in focus. But that model lacks front rise, which is good for landscape and cities, which the Panoramic does have, but it lacks front tilt. Both cameras are specialized.

One is not better, they are simply different.
