I still have my F2As though it's all gummed up. I remember my F2(s) fondly though if I ever get to shoot film again it will be with my F3 or F5. I'd like to shoot Tri-X if anything like that is still made. Making B&W prints in a wet darkroom is magic!

Ah, what a pity.
Old Iron from the old days, nice. Will you be printing the pano segments and physically joining them?
I don’t think so. The film will be digitized and processed further the “digital way”
A magnificent piece of mechanical engineering! The lens sets it off beautifully.
Thank you, too kind.
Same here Ian. As a four years old, kneeling on a kitchen chair with my elbows on the table, I was told "...watch this..." as the paper was slipped into the tray in front of me. Neither the magic nor the anticipation ever dissipate.
F2AS...I put a role of FP4 into mine a few weeks ago and went out and bought some new batteries. End result was zero, zip, zilch...the DP12 is kaput...sigh.
My DP12 still working with batteries which are in for I don’t remember how long. DP12 with its ruby red -o+ indicators.
This said, my several attempts to revive my film apparel hasn’t been too successful. I had too much of darkroom, Chromegas, E6, Kodak Model 11/16 drum processors, Gretag Macbeth Densitometers, Cibachrome, and even Dye Transfer. I’m happy to live now into the
digital age 
Thank you all for your comments
