The #5 cirkut camera was a rotating panoramic camera made by the folmer & Schwing division of Eastman Kodak and available between 1915 and 1923. It was the smallest cirkut camera produced, using 5" film to shoot a negative up to 42" in length. The camera came with a triple convertible 6 1/4"/ 11"/14" lense and a rising and falling front for controlling the placement of the horizon line. About 400 cameras were made.
