  Artillery Ammunition in the Crimea
On the Alma battlefield, bodies were found of 14-15 Russian infantrymen killed by one roundshot alone, going right through the centre of their bodies near the waist - a complete file of men shown to have been hit from behind as all were lying across each other, face down.
Roundshot ranged out to 1000 yards, but this could be doubled by ricochet, ideally slightly downhill, though not steeply down, on firm ground.
If roundshot was accurate, the explosive shell had traditionally suffered from lack of accuracy, due to unreliable fuse burning times.

 Battle of Culloden - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Clan Chattan was first away, but an area of boggy ground in front of them forced them to veer right so that they obstructed the following regiments and the attack was pushed towards the wall.
The Highlanders advanced on the left flank of the Government troops but were subjected to several volleys of musket fire and the artillery which had switched from roundshot to grapeshot.
Despite this, a large number of Jacobites reached the Government lines; however, unlike in previous battles, their uncoordinated charge meant that the line arrived piecemeal.

Roundshot 28/220 with the 28 mm lens of Nikon (also Contax and Leica).
view of the Roundshot is only about 6,75 cm long, but 50 mm wide, it probably must be cropped to get rid of the upper and lower parts of the scene and to get the same proportions of the picture as with the Noblex.
On the other side, the final size of the picture is about the same as my cropped slides, made with the Mamiya RB 67.

 Wargames Journal   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
Grape shot was a naval weapon consisting of a number of roundshots or a segmented roundshot that were connected together by chain or wire and was used for bringing down rigging on ships.
This means that roundshot was placed on top of the canister so that when it was fired the canister tear apart the leading ranks of the advancing enemy while the roundshot ripped through the ranks of troops following behind.
There can be little doubt that in battle gunners often could not see their targets, either because of the smoke from their own guns or those of the enemy, and it is quite likely that firing came in short, concentrated bursts, with one round per minute a normal average rate of fire.

 photographer
It was my friend Werner Seitz, coincidentally the producer of roundshot panoramic cameras, who gave me the idea and got me going for my Australian venture.
When we met during a snowy evening in late 2001 over some Swiss Fondue, he was all fired up about his latest model, the 28/220 roundshot, a very compact yet powerful professional camera.
I had always been interested in photography in general and in the roundshot technology in particular.

 Cannon Survey Ammunition - Mel Fisher Maritime Heritage Society and Museum in Key West, Florida Cannon Survey
As for types of ammunition, the standard form was the “Roundshot” (also called a “Cannonballs” by non-purists).
These were almost invariably made from cast-iron, and were used to smash up the hull of an enemy ship When a roundshot struck and penetrated an enemy hull it could dismount guns and rip off huge jagged splinters of wood which would maim the crew.
Sometimes guns were double-shotted (two roundshot in the barrel), which reduced the range to 800 yards.

 Upcoming reviews of Seitz Super Roundshot panoramic cameras
Having visited the Seitz workshop in Lustdorf, Switzerland, I can comment on the precision with which their panorama cameras are designed and constructed.
Many members of the panoramic photo associations have Seitz Roundshot cameras, either for 35mm, 120, 220, 70mm or the newer digital models.
We should also point out that some Seitz cameras can do rollout photograph, such as the one we have.

I must correct myself, partly or entirely: apparently there was (also) a 21/35, with Leitz 21mm lens, including shift (remember, the Seitz Roundshots also took 30mm non-perforated film, and with 43.26mm image circle it could still shift).
My Roundshot uses unperforated film (perforated can be used as well) and I suspect all the Roundshots apart from the 35mm models use unperfed as well.

 Development of a Novel Camera for Conical Panoramic Photography
Among the earliest panoramic cameras of the type described above is the Cirkut camera, introduced by Eastman Kodak in the late 1800's and which was available in a wide variety of film sizes.
Modern cameras of similar design include the Hulcherama, the Alpa Rotocamera, the Panalux or Roundshot and the Globuscope.
Panoramic records made with "cirkut" type cameras are made by rotating the camera about a vertical axis thus scanning the scene in front of the camera in sequential fashion.
