I wonder if you could do it in a film SLR by swapping the positions of the focussing screen and film plane and then wobbling the mirror? Two *immediate* problems come to mind:

1. Your camera would look damn odd.
2. Your photos would all be mirror images. I *think* you could compensate for this by flipping the negative over when you print, but I really don't see the labs being happy with the idea... ;-)


Ah well.

Great looking camera, just like the awesome maxxum 7 :-). Sorry couldn't resist, I'm a MF Pentax shooter but I guess you know my 35mm brand. Can't wait to try IS on all my existing Maxxum lenses. I'm sure Pentax will follow suit. It is a shame it can't be done with film cameras as it is achieved by moving the sensor and they would have to move the film plane in our 35mm SLR's
