Luftwaffe Kriegsberichter Credits?

Good morning all.

I was wondering if there is a database either in a book, magazine, online or in the archives that show the credits for specific Luftwaffe war reporters so you can see what articles or filmed reports are credited to each reporter?

I am looking for such credits for the Sonderführer/Feldwebel Heinrich (Heinz) Holzapfel who was killed with KG-55 when the He-111 he was in crashed landed back at Villacoublay after a raid on the UK on 11th September 1940.
From his Wehrpass he served with Hauptbildstelle RLM from 1936-1937 and then Hauptfilmstelle RLM from 1937 to 1940. During the 1936-39 period he served at some point with Legion Condor during the Spanish Civil War and received the Spanish Cross with Swords.
From a previous post on 12 OCH dated for 2013 I know he is also listed as serving with Luftwaffe Kriegsberichter-Kompanie 5 during the time that he was killed.
