Please see the camera-wiki article on the Canon T70. This is another multi-mode camera; and like the Ricoh XR-P, it offers 3 different choices of autoexposure programs, for different lens types.
The plastic body shell also includes a power winder (like the Konica FT-1). The top LCD display and the pushbutton interface would prove to be a very influential trend in 1980s cameras. The integral winder of the T70 also adds motorized rewind.
Please see the camera-wiki article on the Minolta XD series. This marks the launch of Minolta's "MD" series lenses, a modification of their bayonet mount to allow a camera body to set the aperture automatically (i.e. for shutter-priority autoexposure).
The XD-11 (XD-7 in other markets) is the manual-focus Minolta SLR which squeezes the maximum number of features into the minimum size, making it a sought-after model.
Popular Photography published a launch profile in this same magazine issue.

The A-6 Intruder was designed to serve two roles: one, to replace the aging A-1 Skyraider and supplement the A-4 Skyhawk in the carrier-based strike role, and two, to give the US Navy a genuine all-weather strike aircraft. The requirement was issued in 1957, and Grumman’s A2F-1 design selected, with the first flight in 1960. In 1962, just before fleet entry in 1963, the Intruder was redesignated A-6A.
The A-6 was designed to hit targets with pinpoint accuracy in adverse weather, day or night, similar to what the USAF would later require for the F-111 Aardvark. For this reason, it was built around the Digital Integrated Attack/Navigation Equipment (DIANE), which used three radar systems to constantly update the INS and provide attack data to the bombardier/navigator sitting in the right seat. The system proved very complicated and it would be some years before it was perfected. Since the weather and night would be the Intruder’s primary defense, no defensive armament was put on the aircraft, though it could carry an impressive 18,000 pound warload of air-to-ground weaponry.
The Intruder was committed early to the Vietnam War, which showed up the flaws in the DIANE system and a more lethal one in the bomb delivery system, which had a tendency to set off the bombs prematurely, destroying the aircraft. Gradually improvements were made, and despite the loss of 84 Intruders over Vietnam, it proved to be extremely effective: until the bugs were ironed out of the F-111A in 1971, the A-6 remained the only American aircraft that could attack during the monsoon season. Specialized A-6Bs were also produced specifically for Iron Hand defense suppression missions, and A-6Cs for anti-truck operations on the Ho Chi Minh Trail.
All three variants were replaced by the A-6E beginning in 1971: this replaced DIANE with a more advanced solid-state computer and the three radars with a single AN/APQ-148 multimode radar. In 1979, the A-6E was further modified with the installation of Target Recognition Attack Multisensor (TRAM), consisting of a turret in the nose containing FLIR linked to the radar and a new bomb computer. Besides making the already accurate A-6 even more deadly, it also allowed the Intruder to drop laser-guided bombs, hit moving targets with bombs, and also use passive radar to attack a target.
A-6s would find themselves once more heavily employed during the First Gulf War, flying 4700 sorties for the loss of four aircraft; its final roles would find it supporting Marines in Somalia in 1991 and UN forces in Bosnia in 1995. By that time, surviving A-6Es had been partially upgraded to allow them to fire all newer guided weapons in the inventory (namely the AGM-84 Harpoon, AGM-65 Maverick, and AGM-88 HARM), while most of the fleet also received composite wings. Grumman further proposed an updated version designated A-6F, with new avionics and engines, but the US Navy rejected this in favor of replacing the Intruder with the F/A-18C/D Hornet. The last A-6E left US Navy service by Feburary 1997; the US Marine Corps had retired theirs in 1993.
In addition to the attack versions of the Intruder, Grumman also built the dedicated KA-6D tanker version, which replaced the attack systems with an internal hose/reel refuelling system. These too were retired in 1997 and replaced by the S-3B Viking.
Bureau Number 154171 would be one of the highest-timed A-6s ever built: it would serve with no less than 12 squadrons during its three-war career! (For interest of brevity and sanity, this history will only list seven of those units, as 154171 was shuttled between squadrons seemingly once a year.) It was built as an A-6A, and was assigned to VA-65 ("Fighting Tigers") aboard USS Kitty Hawk (CVA-63) in 1968. It would remain with that squadron until 1970, when it was transferred to VA-115 ("Eagles") aboard USS Midway (CVA-41), where it saw combat during Operation Linebacker over North Vietnam.
After Vietnam, 154171 was sent to the Marines and VMA(AW)-242 ("Bats") at MCAS El Toro, California, serving there from 1972 to 1974, then back to the Navy with VA-176 ("Thunderbolts") aboard USS America (CV-66). It returned ashore in 1978, when it was upgraded to an A-6E and flew as a testbed aircraft at NAS China Lake until 1983. 154171 went back to the Marines as a training aircraft with VMAT(AW)-202 ("Double Eagles") until 1985, and would then serve off and on with VA-165 ("Boomers") from then until retirement in 1996. During that time, it flew during Operation Earnest Will, the escorting of tankers through the Persian Gulf during the Iran-Iraq War, and during Operation Southern Watch in the aftermath of the First Gulf War, mostly aboard the USS Nimitz (CVN-68) and USS Constellation (CV-64). (Estrella claims that 154171 saw combat over Libya and in Desert Storm, which is possible, as the aircraft was detached to other squadrons during that time period.)
In 1996, 154171 was donated to the Estrella Warbirds Museum and flown there from NAS Whidbey Island, Washington. Surprisingly, it went on display with the engines still in the aircraft, and left in the markings of VA-165, its last squadron. It's looking a little worn, but still in good shape when we visited in June 2023.

The age and vulnerability of the RF-101C Voodoo was apparent by the Vietnam War. As losses rose among the Voodoo community, the USAF sought a faster and newer replacement. The solution turned out to be yet another variant of the eminently adaptable F-4C Phantom II. The basic airframe was retained with a new nose, with three cameras placed inside. As the RF-4C was meant to be unarmed, it was not necessary to retain the multimode interception radar of the F-4C, and the RF-4C used the smaller AN/APQ-99 navigation radar. Lighter and more aerodynamic than the F-4C, the RF-4C proved to be the perfect replacement for the RF-101 and remaining RF-84F Thunderstreaks in USAF service. It entered service in 1965.
The RF-4C would be the last dedicated manned tactical reconnaissance aircraft in USAF service. They were used extensively over Vietnam, and in active-duty USAF squadrons until the late 1980s, when they were relegated to Air National Guard units. The last two squadrons of ANG RF-4Cs saw service during the First Gulf War, after which they were retired completely. A number were supplied to foreign air forces afterwards, but the RF-4E (built off of the early F-4E variant) remains the primary foreign RF-4 version.
One of the oldest RF-4Cs left, 63-7746 joined the USAF in 1965. According to the museum, it served with the 366th Tactical Fighter Wing at Holloman AFB, New Mexico, at least for a time. By 1979, it was with the Air National Guard, the 117th Tactical Reconnaissance Wing (Alabama ANG) at Birmingham, but returned to the active duty USAF by being reassigned to the 67th TRW at Bergstrom AFB, Texas, and may have seen action during Operation Desert Storm. By 1991, 63-7746 was back with the Guard, flying with the 163rd TRG (California ANG) at March AFB, where it remained until retirement in 1996, when it was donated to the March Air Museum.
March shows off the various camouflage patterns used by the F-4 over the years: their F-4C is in Southeast Asia, the F-4E is in Egypt One, and 63-7746 is in Europe One, or a variation of it. It carries the 163rd's starry tail stripe on the tail. According to the museum's website, 63-7746 is remarkably intact for a museum aircraft: it still not only has its engines, but cameras and ejection seats as well.
Please see the camera-wiki article on the Pentax SF1 (SFX outside North America). After the "halfway there" ME-F, this was the inaugural Pentax autofocus SLR, adapting the 13-year-old K mount with a focus-drive coupler.
Low-light photography gets a boost with a focus-assist lamp and a popup flash incorporating TTL exposure control. As is practically mandatory for the era, there's a motorized winder, multiple autoexposure programs, and a top LCD panel.

This is RF-4C 65-0903, which joined the USAF's 67th Tactical Reconnaissance Wing at Mountain Home, Idaho in 1966. A year later, it was sent to Vietnam, serving first with the 18th Tactical Fighter Wing at Kadena, Japan, and then the 460th TRW at Tan Son Nhut, South Vietnam. It survived almost four years of combat, and in 1971 was brought back to the United States, to serve with the 67th TRW at Bergstrom AFB, Texas. It was only in Texas for a year before it was relegated to the 155th TRG (Nebraska ANG) at Lincoln. 65-0903 would remain with the 155th for an incredible 21 years before it was retired in 1993.
As one of the highest-timed RF-4Cs in the USAF and as a Vietnam veteran, 65-0903 was slated for preservation, and went on display as a gate guard at Rickenbacker ANGB, Ohio. In 2007, however, it returned to Nebraska, as it had served with the Nebraska ANG (and had never been assigned to a unit in Ohio). Though it never flew with Strategic AIr Command, it was placed on display at the SAC Museum at Ashland to honor the 155th's aircrews.
As one of the newest aircraft on display at the SAC Museum, 65-0903 is in superb condition, and was restored to its appearance with the Nebraska ANG, with the camouflage pattern worn by some of the USAF's RF-4 community when the aircraft was retired. My picture didn't turn out so well, but luckily my friend Darren was able to get a much better shot that he's allowed me to use.

Fujica's new SLRs for Fujinon-X bayonet mount lenses, announced earlier, are now available. Please see the camera-wiki article on the AX-5. Its bundled lens was typically a 55mm with the unusual widest aperture of f/1.6.
The new lens series allows the body to set the aperture automatically, and so the AX-5 offers both programmed and shutter-priority autoexposure. Autoexposure based on any selected aperture setting is also available. There are quite a lot of LEDs in the viewfinder to cover all the possibilities.
