L "Soon after the gun camera wi introduced arguments arose at th. training fields as to which aviator first shot the other, when both show: od hits on their film. This neces sitated the introductioff of Some fori of time indicator. At' present the gun camera in photographing a hit also registers the time on the same image. "It was believed at first that the aiming of the gun camera would have to' be done mechanically, and one had visions of intricate gears and other 'mechanism. But the problem of aiming was solved by a system of mirrors. ? "The gun camera is properly regis- tered with relation to the sights of the machine gun to which it ia at- tached by 'first sighting the machine gun on a point a definite distance away and then moving the camera so 0] that the point of the bisebting lines 0} of the "graticule' fell exactly on the 0! point where the gun was sighted, Suitable tlamping members then in- sure the accuracy of ain. "In place of the explosive force of the usual cartridge, something had to be introduced in the gun camery for driving the mechanism. The de- signers in the present and Iatest model have made use of a spring, which is wound with a handle similar to that employed in winding phono- graph motors, The spring is fastened directly to the shaft that turns the five-ineh reel and through to the Geneva cross movement which causes the intermittent action of the shuts ter and film-shifting mechanisin each time the gun is fired. The film is standard motion picture stock, and in the gun camera it travels from a Spool in the small end of the maga- sine, past a light trap where it is exposed and thence to a reel five inches in digmeter at the larger end of the magazine, where it is stored until developed.
