Williamson Tracing Table, Mark 2. Used in connexion with the multiplex
mapping equipment, has interchangeable scales of high magnification
projection to enable the operator to read to 0-1 mm., and to approximate
to 0-01 mm. Various compensation adjustments are provided to ensure
accurate operation. The Mark 2 model incorporates a condenser system
which permits the floating mark to be viewed from all angles.
Blink stereoscopic projection system. Entirely new principle. Four con
tinuously rotating shutters; one on each projector head, other two
mounted side-by-side for viewing the two superimposed images. Each
viewing shutter receives light from one projector head only (by matching
appropriate shutters), thus achieving the image separation equivalent to
the colour filters of the standard anaglyph system.
Activities and Products
Williamson offer a range of precision air survey instruments and, backed
by half a century of experience, it has always been early in the field of
new development.
Reduction Printer. Used in conjunction with the Multiplex Mapping
Equipment for the production of diapositive plates from photographic
film, it now has interchangeable optical heads so that the printer may be
used with cameras having 6 in., 12 in., or distortion-free lenses.
Enlarger Type R.A.O. III. Is for magnification or reduction up to 2f : 2
from roll films up to 9| in. wide. Focusing is automatic and the lens
and table angle may be adjusted to compensate for camera tilt.
The Navigating Sight. Is a precision-built device that may be reversed
quickly during flight to maintain a track on air horizon positions in the
rear. A range of interchangeable graticules are available according to the
camera lens employed.
Air Reconnaissance Cameras. The 9 in. sq. format F.96 camera, the
standard high-altitude day reconnaissance camera of the Royal Air Force,
employs the principle of image movement compensation so that even when
installed in high-speed aircraft the ground image is effectively stationary
during exposure. The camera has interchangeable lenses of 6 in., 12 in.,
24 in., 36 in., and 48 in. focal length and alternative magazines of 250 ft.,
500 ft., and 1000 ft. capacity.
Spotting Cameras. The latest spotting camera, the in. sq. format F.l 17
Camera (primarily intended as a replacement for the F.24 camera) has
a detachable magazine containing sufficient film for 120 exposures (50 ft.).
Its f/4-5, 6 in. lens has a minimum aperture of f/22 and a between-lens
two-blade shutter with speeds at 1/60, 1/125, 1/250, and 1/400 second.
Various quickly interchangeable models are available; the F.117A—
hand-held manual-operated; the F.l 17B—hand-held electrically rewound;
the F.117C—as the F.117B but for remote installation; the F.117D—as
the F.117C but with image movement compensation; the F.117E—as the
F.l 17B but with an internal battery.

Exhibit
The main exhibits on the Kodak stand are a 30 in. x40 in. back-lit aerial
“Ektachrome” transparency and a large colour photograph of the new
flatness tester installed in the plate-making department at the Kodak
works at Harrow. This apparatus is the first of its kind to be used in
British industry, and can measure imperfections in the surfaces of glass
sheets to an accuracy of one micron. Other panels show examples of
vertical and oblique aerial photography.
One wall of the stand is covered with a giant aerial photograph of the
Kodak works at Harrow, showing the departments responsible for making
the special materials used in photogrammetry.
Activities and Products
Kodak Limited manufacture photographic materials specially for use in
photogrammetry. These include plates made on specially-selected and
tested glass, films and papers on special bases having a high degree of
dimensional stability, and chemicals formulated to produce the best
possible negatives and positives from the emulsions used in this specialist
field.
“Kodak”, “Super-XX” and “Panatomic-X” aero films are produced in a
wide variety of widths, lengths, core types, spoolings, perforations, etc., to
suit every type of aerial camera used today.
