WAAF Instrument Repairers

’ … with the aerial cameras on which they worked. The F24 camera on the left was the standard instrument which took a series of 5 inch by 5 inch exposures from a magazine; it could be either cranked manually or operated automatically when installed in a fixed position. The G28 gun cameras, centre and right, were based on the Vickers machine gun and produced negatives of about 2.5 inch by 2.5 inch from a roll film.’
