- Abstract
- The primary purpose of the gun camera presently used in Navy pl***anes is to improve the efficiency of the pilots and gunners. Although formerly used exclusively for fixed or free gunnery training in slow-speed planes firing no ordnance, it now has 3 basic uses: (1) basic training in free and fixed gunnery, (2) advance training in free and fixed gunnery, (3) combat recording of our own machine gun or cannon fire on enemy ships, planes, and installations. This paper describes the problems peculiar to gun camera photography such as clearness and sharpness, use of color film, and vibration.
