A Practical System of Photography for Genealogists and Historians.
Tate, George F.
The purpose of this report is to describe the KISS (Keep It Sweet and Simple) system of photography for accurately and rapidly copying genealogical and historical records on 35mm film, developing the same and using the resulting negative roll in a regular microfilm reader for immediate viewing. The basic requirement of the system is that it be simple to use, without complicated lights or accessories, positive in its results, and aside from the initial camera investment, very economical in operation. A simple method of personal microfilming is described wherein records are copied on 35 mm film, the film developed and the resulting negative roll read on a conventional microfilm reading machine. A 35mm single-frame camers is used with fast, wide-latitude film and "available light." Development and handling suggestions are given. (Author)
