Vulcan Camera-III
The Vulcan project's Camera-III was built at NASA Ames Research
Center around a Spectral Instruments
560-series camera with a Kodak
KAF16800 4k x 4k CCD and a Canon EF300 f/2.8 lens. The CCD has 9 micron
pixels corresponding to 6 arcseconds on the sky. The total field of view
of the photometer is 7º x 7º.
Robert Showen is seen installing Camera-III in November,
1999.
