16 Advertisements. MARCH 21, 1940. SPEEDY ILLUMINATION OF THE ENEMY The illumination of an aircraft target at 30° or 35° from the Horizon gives the gunners afar greater margin than if their first observations have to be taken at from 65° or 70°. The ever increasing speeds of modern flight make this ' margin ' a stern necessity. The unique scanning system and the impressive range of the SAVAGE SCANNING SEARCHLIGHT ensure this vital early illumination which concen- trated beam Projectors cannot provide. • The Savage Searchlight illuminates and searches, once per second, a sky area from 50 to 100 times greater than the ordinary standard searchlight. • The range of its powerful beam far exceeds the sound range of the most sensitive Sound Locator.

Above all, the camera had to be reduced in »iie to a degree that would remove once and for all the need to wear it slung on straps or to be carried in the hand. It had in fact to be so minute that it could be slipped into the smallest handbag or the ticket pocket without being noticed. It had to be sympathetically responsive to ail photographic situations and yet so simple that no technical knowledge or skill would be necessary for its operation. AH these qualities are embodied in the MINOX and have been proved in practice. Price £25.0.0 with pigskin purse. For details of MINOX apparatus apply to your Dealer or write to— MINOX LTD. 29, KING WILLIAM STREET, LONDON, E.C.4 ••:«« Actual size ready for use.
