FOR SALE The City of Harvey Police Department, Harvey, Illinois, offers for sale on an "AS IS and AS SHOWN" basis, a "N-Mirotar" Near Total Darkness Photography Lens. The N-Mirotar (n=Nacht, night) is a special lens which through advanced technology in image intensification makes night photography possible without the aid of artificial lighting or a tripod. The instrument comprises a high-speed mirror lens, a 3-stage image intensifier tube, a wide aperture macro-lens and a power supply source. The mirror lens picks up residual light and throws the image of a night scene onto the photocathode of the image intensifier tube. In this tube, the details of the scene are intensified 80,000 times in 3 steps according to luminance and then projected onto a screen. The macro-lens links the image intensifier to the camera and transfers the image from the screen onto the film. Compared to a f/1.4 photographic lens, the N-Mirotar magnifies the intensity of illumination at the film plane 2,500 times. This means that exposure time can be reduced 11 exposure steps by using the N-Mirotar. On a clear moonlit night (illuminance 10'' lux) with ASA-400 film (27 DIN) the exposure time is about 1/500 sec. Using the same type of film on a quarter moonlit (10-2) or starlit night (10-3), the exposure times are 1/60 sec. and 1/4 sec. respectively.
