Jupiter Horizon Panoramic (Gorizont, Horizont, Revue)
The Jupiter Horizon (also sold as Gorizont, Horizont, and rebadged Revue) is a Soviet 35mm panoramic camera that uses a swing-lens mechanism to expose a wide, curved-plane negative. It was positioned as a specialist tool for landscape and architectural panoramic photography on standard 35mm film.
Saleroom data for this model is thin: a single UK auction hammer result from January 2025 recorded a price of £300, which is the only reference point currently available. As a wholesale figure that excludes buyer's and seller's commission, that £300 hammer is what one clean example sells for at auction today, but with just one data point the broader value range cannot be reliably stated.

Frequently asked questions
What is a Jupiter Horizon Panoramic worth today?
On the limited UK auction evidence available, a Horizon Panoramic sold for £300 hammer in early 2025; with only one recorded sale, the wider market value cannot be stated with confidence.
How much does a Horizont or Gorizont sell for at auction?
The single tracked UK auction result for this model — sold under the Horizon/Gorizont/Horizont/Revue badging — was £300 at hammer, excluding commission.
What should I check before buying one?
Test the swing-lens sweep at every shutter speed for smooth, even travel, and inspect the curved film gate, viewfinder and spirit level, since uneven lens motion is the most common fault and causes visible banding on the negative.
