This camera system was deployed January 24-25, 1998 at the bottom of string 13 in AMANDA. The camera consisted of one down-looking camera and one looking into the wall of the hole. Five metres below the camera system, a glass sphere with a light source pointing into the wall was located. Depths given in the movie are interpolated and may have uncertainties up to 100 m below 1300 m. The final position depth is exact.
