The paper analyzes the characteristics of digital cameras with a set of inter-changeable lenses and extenders, which were part of the ISS RS standard equipment from 2001 to 2020 and were used by Russian cosmonauts to per-form visual observations of the Earth's surface in the interests of environmental examination of various areas and objects, improvement of methods of observation, evaluation and forecast of potentially hazardous or catastrophic phenomena. The paper also presents the features of photographic recording of ground objects using ultra-long focus optics.
