Day Three - morning

Once again it was a beautiful sunny morning. Not as much to do today and so I am going to take advantage and do some work, though a shopping trip is necessary later.

Mike sent an email to Andrew with some suggestions for fixing the problem with the camera and so he headed over to the hut.

Potential issues:
(1) The lens is kaput, which is quite possible.
(2) The detector has moved within the camera, which is highly unlikely and it is not adjustable.
(3) There is something between the lens and detector, which has a refractive index other than air.
Andrew checked for number (3) but found no filter leaving (1) and (2). If (1) is the case we may have to buy or borrow a lens. If (2) is the case we are stuffed. Tonight we shall try the lens from the photometer on the camera - if we have the same problem then I think we might be in trouble...
