F6F-5Ps used in Operation Crossroads had an under-fuselage trimetrogon camera system. I have yet to see a good shot of that camera fit. These are the best shots I have, all aircraft operating from the USS Saidor for that operation, as well as photo TBMs. You can see that there is a prominent deflector flange rivetted just in front of the RH side camera port (same for LH I assume) but the ventral camera port can only bee seen internally. Any more photos out there?
