Look at the video, this thing is really incredible.
It was the first twin-reflex design and manuf'r. (1950s)
First digital FAX machine designer and supplier. (1960s)
It now owns Pentax, another prolific designer in the world of cameras.
This is an amazing instrument...... yet, no surprise really - the inevitable is the 360DEGREE Video cam. 😉

That takes quite a bit of video manipulation, presumably done in hardware on board the camera, not sure.
