I'm not sure why you would want one really. You can always shoot with a
really wide lens, then crop the top and/or bottom and blow it up to make a
"panoramic" picture. I think that the only camera that actually changes the
shutter proportions is the Hassleblad 35mm rangefinder. With that camera,
I'm sure that the lens has to have really good (I mean wide) coverage to
accomodate the wider shutter opening. That's gotta make it more
expensive.....
Be seeing you.
