Camera Craftsman - September/October 1958

This September-October 1958 issue of Camera Craftsman (Vol. 4, No. 4) celebrates the National Camera Repair School's accreditation by the National Home Study Council. The magazine delivers substantial technical content for camera technicians and repair professionals.

The issue features essential technical sections including an Engineering Vocabulary column with humorous definitions of professional workplace jargon, articles on ultra-high speed flash photography, photographic optics, and camera lens and shutter systems. It introduces a new camera repair estimator tool and covers practical projects such as building a miniature machine shop and repairing cigarette lighters.

The "Reports from the Craftsmen" section showcases success stories from former students, detailing their expanding repair businesses and growing clientele. Regular columns cover school events, ServiBusiness calendars, and practical guidance for establishing and operating a photographic repair service department.

The publication includes a curated catalog of professional tools and accessories essential for camera repair work: professional-grade tool chests with lift-out trays and drawer slides, precision binocular magnifiers for detailed work, an electric circuit tracer (Circuitracer) for testing photo-flash circuits, and disposable non-abrasive wipes specifically designed for cleaning camera lenses and optical surfaces.
