Air recce photos.
Has anyone got details of the resolution of the photos for the different focal lengths?
I have never seen an original Luftwaffe photo but have experience of Allied photos. At f35/28,000ft picking out individual tanks is easy on an Allied photo but getting the correct type is hit or miss. I have seen statements that reolution is c.3-9 feet for the Allied f35/28,000 ft combination and wonder what the German resolution was. So many claims are made for the superior German optics but I suspect reading car number plates at this height was never a possibility
