THE AEROPLANE CAMERA.
The multiple aeroplane camera which the Allied airmen are using am tnke thousands of photographs at the rate of one per second If necessary. In this way (says the "Daily Express") it is possible to map the German lines with marvellous precision. One multiple camera alone is eapablo of 750 exposures with a single loading. The secret of this greut capacity lies in its use of ordinary motion-picture film, the turning of the film for a now exposure bein?- accomplished automatically. In boinb-droppiug the camera is capable of taking pictures of the bomb in the air and at the very instant of explosion.
