The Al Vista cameras were panorama cameras made by the Multiscope & Film Corporation in Burlington, Wisconsin. These were panorama cameras of the classic design, with a swing lens in a soft leather bellows. Instead of a shutter the cameras have a spring that turns the lens 180 degrees. Turning speed is regulatable on the Baby Vista No. 1, adjustable for 4 different light situations. The film plane is curved. The cameras use roll film.
