Tips 'TT is proper to use a filter in the •*■ tropics when light conditions permit, the same as anywhere else. There is an idea that the light is generally stronger in the tropics, but I have not found that to be true. The air is more or less hazy and often cloudy.

"In place of a tripod I use a wooden staff with a ferrule on top that screws into the camera and holds it at eye level, thus supporting the weight of the camera but allowing more freedom than a tripod. "On a recent trip I took all except interiors at about 20 frames a second (35mm.), and I project at about 70 feet per minute. This gives sharper pictures where there is much motion, especially when pamming." — Paul Franklin Johnson. THE LEAD TITLE OF B. V.
