Sorry for being so annoying, but I would REALLY appreciate this help  ops: |
You might want to look at the JSC Oral Histories project
site. It is a bunch of interviews of various NASA personal and astronauts.
The ones by John Brinkman and Richard Underwood are good. They cover the photography part of the Apollo missions.
I partically like the one by Dick Underwood. He goes in great detail on photographing things from space and all the factors that go into taking a good photograph, like lighting, lens settings, etc. Non-technical too. There is a great section on how he got in trouble with the DOD for telling the press that some of the shuttle photos showed that the Russians were violating the SALT treaties. So here's a guy that would have a beef with the government and could have revealed a hoax, but didn't. Basically, anything the hoaxers have said about the photograph and camera is refuted here.
