The enclosed photograph may be
of interest to readers of the Pathe
Monthly. I have recently purchased
a Motocamera B·on which there is no
tripod bush. By making a small box,
lined with baize, and tapped to take
a tripod screw I can now use the
camera on a tripod. For safety I
hold the camera in by means of a
leather strap and press stud.
Incidentally the same box is very
handy for holding the camera fixed
in the titler. W. L. YOUNG.
