It's been a while since we featured a proper Frankencamera project here on RedShark, but YouTuber Snappiness' project to join two Sony A7 IIs together makes up for it.
"This is the craziest thing I've ever built," says YouTuber James Warner, aka Snappiness, introducing his latest video. "I took two Sony A7II full-frame camera bodies and attached them together to make one massive 24x72mm sensor frame."
The inspiration for this was the Hasselblad Xpan, which uses 35mm film, but instead of exposing the normal 24 x 36 mm frame, it almost doubles the width to 24 x 65 mm for an extra-wide panoramic shot.
Snappiness figured that two Sony A7IIs would trump even that and produce a 24 x 72 mm shot. All he needed to do was build a lens adaptor to split the light from a Pentax 6 x 7 lens. See how he go on below (Spoiler: It didn't quite work out, but the concept seems sound).
