Fairchild K2. 0 aerial camera. I purchased a Fairchild Avation Corp. K2. 0 camera, complete in original case, recently. I am struggling to find out much information on this unit. Would any members know where I could get details from.
I have tried your Patent Office for No. I am unable to get far enough back in the archives to retreive it. I would be most grateful of any information on this camera. Thanking you in anticipation.

Regards Mike. Drew Bedo, Dec 2. Post a picture? They were designed for aerial recon and surveying around the WWII period and are very ruggedly built. These cameras tend to come apart into three sections - the film magazine, the shutter assembly and the cone containing the lens.
They were normally 2. V with shutter, film advamce and aperture all operable from a cockpit position. They could be placed either facing forward embedded in a wing root, sideays behind the pilot or pointin directly downwards, sometimes in pairs for stereo interpretation. Film was 5 inch rollfilm giving a 5 inch square neg. I have not managed to locate any of this size but it may still exist somewhere. The shutter is the most usual thing to go wrong as it is a cloth type blind variety. For the F2. 4 it is powered by the planes 2.
V elec supply but it can also be worked by hand as well. The cone contains the lens which bolts to it. The usual lens for the F2.
Pentac and the most common US lens is the Kodak Aero- Ektar 1. Shorter or longer lenses could be used by changing the cone. These lenses are fairly easily obtainable still as are a variety of other lenses up to the 3. This wikipedia article says the K2.
Fairchild. With care there is not too much to worry about but you should be aware of the issue. Dave B. Bruce Thomas, Jan 0.

It is completely manual in operation and has no electrical connections although some were later modified to K- 2. V. As pointed out in an earlier reply they do take 5.
Have a look at the winding and firing actions with the back removed, complicated but exceptionally reliable. Approx 1. 5,0. 00 of these cameras were made during WW2 and most US bombers were equipped with 1 or 2 of them. They found their way into other allied Air Forces as well, and several different Navies which had air wings. There are probably 1. If you can find the film it would be horrendously expensive to process so just enjoy looking at the camera!
I have 3 and all appear to function perfectly, even the one that was used after the war by a commercial aerial photography business well into the late sixties. Cheers,Bruce. A K- 2. Graflex. Chauncey Walden, Jan 0.
I had one of these back in 1. Just couldn't resist it for $1. For playing around purposes, I single loaded 4x. Worked fine, but what I remember most about it was the awful noise it made when fired.
I guess it was the vacuum pump. Have no idea whatever happened to it. Back to top. Notify me of Responses.
