"Erkundung mit der Kamera" (Reconaissance with the Camera)

[Olham]

Just found this book title, when I was searching for aerial recon cameras.

 

 

 

Helmut Jäger: "Erkundung mit der Kamera - Die Entwicklung der Photographie zur Waffe und ihr Einsatz im 1. Weltkrieg"

(Reconaissance with the Camera - the development of photography as a weapon, and it's use in World War One)

Well wouldn't THAT be a fun thing to try to use in an aeroplane! I wonder about exposure times, how does on focus, etc.? So then you hurry back to the field, and into the darkroom... Wow.

 

Maybe better suited to use from balloons?

That looks interesting. Hmm...
