Nikkorex-F 35mm camera

Volver

Nikkorex-F 35mm camera used by Associated Press photographer James "Ike" Altgens to take photographs before, during and after the shooting of President Kennedy. Altgens was the only professional to capture part of the Kennedy assassination on film and his images were the first to be shown publicly. This is the camera he used, although the lens - an identical model - is not.
