Isn’t the brand of the camera, it’s the label of the World ^^
i don’t wonder if it is Made in Taywan
And just south Fiducial 3 pops up several times. All caused by pushing the edge of the photographic survey out to the max.
Manufacturer and supplier of the RMK-TOP Aerial Survey Camera system is Carl Zeiss, Germany and Intergraph Corporation, Huntsville, AL.
and it’s the best camera on the world!
see Phil’s remark!

Except when the shutters fail!
yeah, but that gives you at least some days off, fortunaterly tha exchange can be done in 1 day. It is a true blue, not a green cam. What will be happen with the 9 shutters of a silver cam?
Over a year ago, I was trying to find the Nike missile sites around Anchorage (Site Summit, Site Bay, ect.), and I came across that. However, at that time it was a red “bullseye” without any text.
Lol, and there is a red crosshair just south of it
It is a great camera with excellent contrast in colour and resolution.
Right, Lee!!!
