I'm quite interested in the notion of curved film plane pano pinhole cameras,
but have not been clear about accessible ways to construct the curved film
plane. I've seen multiple examples. Any experience on 1) what's sufficient
for a mock-up, and 2) what is best without access to a sophisticated machine
shop? (presumably 2 different approaches)
