Sporting Life photographer Norman Herfort using the new wonder camera developed by Chief Camera Mechanic of Associated Newspapers Limited, W. Whitehead. The remarkable camera can freeze the fastest action into startling immobility and record what the eye cannot detect. Sporting Life's frozen-action camera is a development of the DeVry movie camera fitted with a 20-inch telephoto lens and takes 12 frames a second on 35 mm film. Sporting Life will use its frozen-action camera to provide a unique series of instructional films on all sports. February 5, 1951.
