K-10
is easily operated on the Ground or in Flight

Two simple motions make the picture.  
-A half turn of the winding crank
-A slight pressure on release

A single half turn of the winding crank automatically sets the shutter and moves film into position for next exposure.

A visibly tally on outside of camera automatically records numbers of exposures that have been made on the film.

A shutter release level placed convenient to right hand grip allows operation without changing grip.

Entire back of camera is easily removed to allow insertion or removal of roll film.  Roll film is held in place by two knurled spool centers unscrewed from outside of camera.  The K-10 uses roll film, panchromatic type, either regular or hypersensitized.  Each roll has a capacity of twenty-five 5x7 exposures.  The K-10 loads or unloads in daylight as simply as an ordinary hand camera.

When not in use the K-10 is packed in a substantially build leather-covered field case measuring 16"x16"x14", equipped with lock and key.  Field case is cushioned to absorb shipping shocks and is provided with pockets for carrying four 25 exposure rolls of film.
