  • Notes
  • The Type 51 Camera Adapter is designed to permit recording of cathode tube ray traces and data pertaining to them.
    It has a versatile mounting system which adapts itself conveniently to a large number of camera types, ranging from 4"x5" filmpack to almost all 35mm types. Some movie cameras can also be used with it.
    The camera is mounted in a vertical plane, the CRT face being reflected by a partially metallized retractable mirror, transparent to the red portion of the spectrum. A lens of the proper focal length permits the camera focus to be left at infinity, thus simplifying the camera settings considerably. Crayoned data stands out in apparent bold relief on an edge-lighted piece of plastic which is visible through the mirror, enabling a permanent record to be kept of the circuit conditions at the time of the experiment.
