1. Per your request of 18 March 1966, Memorandum, P&DS/D/SSS/6-1R iwe
have reviewed the drawings submitted 1wthe
Division ofl
lunderl
25X1
2. Although Flappears to have performed a creditable job in design-
ing a production model film reader which would resolve problems encountered
in the prototype F--]viewer, current IAD responsibilities do not require
utilization of an instrument of this type. We do not, therefore, recommend
production of the Model 265 at this time unless its use is required by the
NPIC/PAG.
3. Should a device of this type become an integral part of any future
"chip selection" system we would, of course, wish to re-evaluate this pro-
posal.
4. We appreciate the opportunity of participating in this evaluation,
and are returning the subject drawings with this memorandum.

SUBJECT
: Comments on riFilm Reader
25X1A
1. In response to your request to evaluate the engineering drawings and
specifications for the new film reader, the P&G has found it impossible to re-
view the box of engineering drawings -submitted but the "System Description and
Specifications #265" has been read and comments made in pencil near the state-
ment to which it refers.
2. In reading the system description there seems to be no great change
in oper ting procedures over what is now available in the prototype. One
exception to this however is the film or leader loading which has been auto-
mated. According to the description of this however, it still is not a
proven system operation that can be depended upon. More work should be done
on operator convenience and simplification of procedures.
3. A memorandum evaluating the use of the present= Reader/Viewer
prototype will be forthcoming next week from PAG. This paper lists advantages
and disadvantages, and recommendations concerning use of the instrument and
additional computer data which would aid the photointerpretor.
4. It would be Appreciated if thegns indicated in the comments
on the "System Description and Specifications #265" were answered and for-
warded to PAG. It is further _suggested thatI
lhave a discussion of the concept and operation of the new
H Reader/Viewer .
