A process for effecting panoramic photography with a photographic instrument having an objective lens with an optical axis, an aperture in front of the lens, and an apertured film guide in back of the lens for travel of film therealong, said process comprising uniformly advancing the film continuously along the guide at a predetermined constant rate of speed whereby successive portions of the film are continuously exposed through the aperture in the film guide, and rotating the instrument independently of the advancing of the film on a fixed support about an axis passing through the lens and extending at an angle to the optical axis, the direction and speed of rotation of the instrument relative to said support being such that the net velocity of travel of the film relative to said support is substantially zero.
