A variety of cameras wee used in the conflict! To the photographic battle shoots a good many specialized cameras wee adapted or evolv ed rather like the Jeep./ I can say faioly accuratley that the Speed Graphics(since l9l2) took the field, literally, and there wee various specialized spy and aerial cameras. The Czarist uised a very advanced camera called the Ouioliamin designed by an Army engineer. The Oulilamin was a specialized roll-film job with a fully enclosed telephoto lens of l000MM, and had internal F-stops somethign rare in l909 when it was patented. this Russain camer ahad a neat built in leather case and among other advancements, two separate systems of sights, a separate horizon camera for aerial work, and get this a built in Altimeter which would record the altitude on the negatives! Had some civilian applicaitons of course and they certia,y were used by The Imperial Family-quite possibnly the youngerst Grand duchess(who was an avid shutterbug) may havbe had one! some day an Ouiliamin (wee-Lee a meen) in a purple leather case marked with a crowned AR migvbht well show up, That would be priceless. Ont he other sidce the Germans used all kinds of Zeiss cameras with stereoscopic rangefinders up on the forward-obsewrvaiton staitons of Battleships. well that"s for starrters on the War I front. M<uch camera use! A variety of cameras wee used in the conflict!
