Aldis lens from WW2?
http://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/785077
Anyone recognise this piece of gear? http://www.flickr.com/photos/34593726@N05/3641870235/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/34593726@N05/3641870247/ Is it from an RAF photo reconnaissance camera, and if so is it from WW2? Any input appreciated.

Re: Aldis lens from WW2?
Hi Ruy,
20" focal length lens were common on RAF F.8, F.24 and F.52 cameras but as to if the lens' in question were of the type fitted to the above cameras I can't say. Matzos would probably be able to answer. Best Regards Andy Fletcher
