Okay, I've found another, of what appears to be, version of the F6Fsh camera port. What I have seen up to this time is the camera mounted with a port side shooting direction. The photos I have seen show a round opening. Now this second one shows up. Am I right the this one is in fact an F6F? This opening seems to be on the Starboard side. I cannot see any text or any other clue that the photo has been flip flopped. Can anyone spot anything to suggest it has. The opening seems to be something like the covers on a P-38, a bit bigger, and attached from the outside, which makes sense. The trap door on the underside is shown as well.
Anyone who can clear this up for me I would be in their debt.
***Oh, and were the guns removed? Or left in? Did they fly recon, or use the camera on regular ops?
###Well, in my searching I have found that the top picture is most likely Royal Navy as they had a different config of the placement of the camera. The camera was on the Port side, so this photo is probably flopped over.
I do still need to know if the guns were left in the wings.
