The Improved f/10 Sweeping-Image Camera: A Versatile Model for Explosive Research
The previously described f/10 sweeping-image camera has been equipped with a series of refined accessories to adapt it for a wide variety of explosive research problems. In order that the camera may be used with an assortment of objective lenses, it has been equipped with the following adjustable accessories: camera and lens mounts, demountable lenses, remote-control focusing, slit holder mount, field lens mount and viewfinder. Attachments which help in obtaining the correct relative adjustment between the object and the final image are an illuminated-slit projector, a precision mount for the astigmatism correcting lens, and a sweeping-image viewer. To safeguard personnel in the event of a mirror explosion during camera operation, an armor plating has been installed. This work was done under the auspices of the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission.
