We had an aerial of a nudist beach in California shot with a 9x18 film camera and a real long lens. The camera was used in WW2 as a re-con camera. Anyway it was obvious there were hundreds of naked people. It was shot back in the 60s when nude beaches were new and unusual.
It is a cool old camera that is just likely going into a trash can. It just takes up space in our hangar. It was state of the art 1941 technology but useless now. I bet it weighs 400 lbs or more. Each snap of the shutter is $20 worth of film plus processing cost. We have not used it in 25 or more years.
