    Hey everyone, i picked up a large bundle of science and photography equipment over the weekend and im curious if anyone can tell me what this camera part is? Or how it's used? I got many laboritory microscopes and darkroom equipment, so im assuming maybe some sort of housing to take extreme close ups? The camera is a konica ft1 motor but the box is a mystery. Any help would be greatly appreciated. 20190605_225045_compress92.jpg 20190605_225032_compress16.jpg 20190605_225102_compress71.jpg 20190605_225114_compress79.jpg 20190605_225124_compress42.jpg 20190605_225148_compress18.jpg 20190605_225218_compress90.jpg 20190605_225228_compress93.jpg 20190605_225245_compress54.jpg

    whoa..... neat !
    electrified...with a pin cable slot......hummm....and screws on to something , likely larger..... humm..
    my 1st thought would be high speed.....but the box doesn't seen to control the film...... only the aperture.. so , maybe to keep the lens open longer...????

    You could possibly screw it on to a cloud chamber to picture particle tracks?

    Reminds me of a fixed focal camera which were used a lot for security.

    the socket looks like the ones for older printer or scanner cables. DB25.
