And Now, for Something Completely Different:
A Gallery of Sawn-In-Half Cameras

"A Gallery of Sawn-In-Half Cameras
Wired Blog Network (June 30, 2008)

"...The exhibit is full of retro gadgets, as you'll see below, but the most interesting to me were the bisected lenses and cameras, the insides of which show the precision of a CAD drawing. Read on to see sawn-off gadgets, the origin of digital cameras and a secret doorway just for horses...."

The title of this post is somewhat deceptive: one of the lens assemblies wasn't sawn in half. A quarter-section had been removed.

However, the many photographs and descriptive text may be a treat for those of us who will never see the Deutsches Technikmuseum Berlin.
