Not quite, while they are are identical to the airborne reconnaissance cameras used by the RAF, they have only been used for high speed ground and ship work smile
(I'm not sure of their origins, mind, they may be ex-mod or came straight from Vinten's as they were already around when they came into my hands at work)

Blimey. Ex-colleague of mine used to work for Vinten. He was an avionics tech in t'RAF.

Edit to ask: where in Cambs? I'm near Bury St Eds.

Bum. Bit too far. That's a shame.

Bit late to the party with this one, I don’t suppose you still have the f95 camera available? I’m looking for one to go into my Canberra PR.7 cockpit...
