USE OF THE SPORTS¬ 
MAN’S CAMERA 
(CONTI NUEU FROM PAGE 481 ) 
from the black case, is a clever invention 
While every reader is doubtless very mod 
est, and “hates” to have his picture taken 
yet an empty place in the canoe or at th< 
mess table always suggests the absence o 
one of the party to take the picture. Thi; 
is often conspicuous, especially with a two 
man outfit; this little “tripper” is attacha 
ble to the shutter release of cameras pro 
vided with antinuous releases, and will au¬ 
tomatically release the shutter after th( 
photographer has joined the group. 
The remaining device is a small clamp 
with a tripod screw at the top; it is a tri¬ 
pod substitute. It can be clamped to an) 
convenient support—fence, tree, gunwale— i 
to hold the camera firm while making time 
exposures. And let me add that the chap 
who will “bother” to make time exposures, 
is the one who gets the pictures. 
The last section shows materials anc 
equipment which can he taken on the trai 
if it is not absolutely necessary to econo¬ 
mize down to the last ounce. The tripop 
is of the telescoping type, and is bettei 
than the clamp as it can be set up any¬ 
where, while the clamp cannot always be 1 
attached in a convenient position. In the 
latter case, however, if there is time, s ■ 
tripod can often be improvised with thred 1 
small saplings of sticks tied together with 
the clamp at the top. The other materia 
is a “flash gun,” of “takedown” modeU 
with powder and caps. Night pictures in 
the woods are novel, and beautiful too. 
A S the average sportsman will not card 
to develop his films while on the 
trail, that part of the outfit has beer 
ignored. There are. however, convenient 
methods of doing the work, and anyone - 
interested in this phase will find little diffi¬ 
culty in obtaining the articles necessary. 
The outfit described is very easy to carry. 
The camera is on the left hip, in thej 
holster case. If convenient, a full box oi 
films, twenty-four fresh exposures, can be i 
carried in the left hip pocket. The rav 
filter and tripper, fit the breast pocket with- 
room to spare. The tripod clamp can be 
fastened—by tightening the jaws—on any 
part of the equipment. So, when travel¬ 
ling light, one can have a complete outfit 
on his person, and as the major article— 
the camera—weighs but 16 ounces, the bur¬ 
den is not appalling. 
Sometime later, I shall have a few 
words and illustrations on how to use 
a photographic outfit in camp and on 
the trail, to show that the “proof of 
the puddin’ is in the eatin’,’ but for 
the present, let me close with the as¬ 
surance that the outfit described has been i 
given a most practical and repeated work¬ 
out. It will do the work and do it well, 
and will enable a sportsman to bring back 
a most delightful record of the woods and 
streams, his record catches, his snugly > 
pitched camps, and is ready at any time for 
a jaunt into the “happy hunting grounds.” 
[Mr. Anderson is a lover of camp, trail I 
and camera ivho has the happy faculty of 
saying technical things in an interesting 
way. His second article will appear in an . 
early issue. Editors.]
