My 717 Korona uses the term "Panoramic View" on its nameplate, while some
old holders I have for my 1220 F&S say Banquet Camera Film Holders so I
suspect these can be considered standard terms for the formats. I think
you're still on-topic here--oversize cameras are certainly an integral part
of my alternate process work.---Carl
