Had considerable problems footnoting this. I deleted all notes so I could finish the re-write and will try again.--Buckboard 01:07, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

User 83.79.47.175 added this entry on 8 Oct 2006 (last paragraph above 1 - Sources):

"The physician Bernard Waldman, a member of the Project Alberta, was assigned to the crew of Necessary Evil, the B-29 that photographied the explosion of Hiroshima. Waldman was responsible for the Pentax camera that could take 7000 frames per second."
"Pentax" is/was a trade name for a Japanese camera firm that was first used after WW 2 (c. 1957) for a model of single lens reflex 35 mm camera. I don't think that US military would be using Japanese photo equipment in 1945 - even if it was available. Also, it seems technically unlikely that a camera capapable of 7000 frames per second existed in 1945. --TGC55 11:33, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
It was a "Fastax" camera according to:

This page (Fastax camera undated) talks about 10,000 frames per second! [2] Another fast camera is the Dynafax [3]

I can't check the source given in the text, but the sources I see have referred to him as Edward B. Doll. If someone has access to the source text, could you please check? Thanks. -Yupik (talk) 05:26, 23 October 2021 (UTC)

Y The source says "Edward B. Doll", so I have corrected the article; it seems to have been a mis-typed initial. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 19:42, 23 October 2021 (UTC)
