The development and performance of photographic payloads carried on three Skylark rockets, one fired from Woomera, South Australia and two from Mercedes, San Luis Province, Argentina are described. The methods used for prediction of the performance of the photographic systems and the estimation of the required camera exposures are given. For each rocket firing the choice of photographic emulsions and filters is detailed, and examples are given of the imagery obtained. Measurements made on the imagery have validated the methods used for the prediction of the performance of the photographic systems.
