The same story of popularity was true with Michael James, of the New York Times, John Rich, of NBC, George Herman, of CBS, and many others who used the camera and lenses to augment their own coverage as correspondents. Prints made from these Nikkor miniature negatives were enlarged without appreciable image diffusion, to 30" x 40" to be hung by Edward Steichen in his photographic exhibits at the Museum of Modem Art, in New York. It has been Captain Steichen's expressed opinion (which reflect that of many of us who covered the Korean War) that the intimate naked look of the subjects photographed in Korea was largely due to the photographers' choice of the miniature camera for most of their work. If that is true, as most of us do believe, then much credit should also be given the lenses through which the pictures were taken. All of the films shot by Life photographers were rushed. Air express, to New York where they were developed by Life's darkroom staff in the magazine's water temperature-controlled, air-conditioned laboratory. Every roll of miniature film was developed in Eastman Kodak's DK-20 fine-grain developer. Each roll received the same treatment (time and temperature developing) unless marked in the field by one of us, requesting that the darkroom gang cover some mistake we had made in exposure or that they try to balance our negatives where exposures had been thrown off due to combat conditions where we had neither time, nor chance, to change diaphragm openings or shutter speeds. Because of the make-up of the book, it was decided not to number the pages, Therefore it would be a bit difficult to give exposure data for each photograph. It would be somewhat unnecessary, too, for as a whole the exposure was a basic 1/200 sec. at F11. The film was always Eastman SuperXX. 35mm cartridge loaded.
