1960s London Through A Russian Horizont Panoramic Camera

In the 60s, Tony Hall was walking around London and taking pictures wit a Horizont (Горизонт) camera

We’ve been to East London in the 1960s with Tony Hall before, heading down the pub and to the shops. Now we get to see the streets in panoramic pictures taken by his Horizont (Горизонт) camera. Made between 1967 and 1973 by Russia’s Krasnogorsky Mekhanichesky Zavod (KMZ), the 35mm camera had a rotating lens that takes in a 120° panorama as the shutter button is pressed.
