And you had to cover the same section of coastline covered in a 'Popular' at regular intervals, and to obtain full coverage of a section of coastline that had high interest, it had to be covered at low tide (potentially exposing any obstructions or shoals), high tide and mid-tide. The coverage had to be performed at a certain distance from the coastline, at a certain height and at a certain speed to ensure the proper coverage was obtained as well as the required overlap between each photo frame to ensure continuous linear coverage of the section of coast being photographed.
 
Right. That just sets a standard so the corresponding photos can be compared on some kind of an equal basis.
Makes sense.

Part of a series of photos taken on 24 July 1942 at a press day at RAF Sawbridgeworth of North American Mustang I aircraft of No.II(AC) Squadron Royal Air Force - Shiney Two - to introduce the Mustang to the UK and World press. Photographs from this session appeared in a late 1942 issue of Flight Magazine UK edition, with many photos from this event being reprinted multiple times since in many books and other publications about the Mustang and also some are held in the collections of the IWM London. At the time this press day took place, the Squadron had not commenced operational use of the Mustang. A number of low passes were arranged for the press photographers to get suitably very low level photographs to illustrate the low level Army Cooperation role the aircraft were intended to perform. Aircraft is fitted with the early version of the F.24 oblique camera installation.
