Consideration is given to instrumental and atmospheric corrections required when obtaining the direction of a vector from the earth towards a satellite with an accuracy of 0.2 minutes of arc and when using reducing photograms taken with sidereally-driven satellite cameras. Specifically discussed are: (1) the wobbling error, (2) the permanent error of the camera pole axis, (3) the starting delay, (4) the systematic alternations of the rotation velocity, and (5) the influences of changes in the amount and direction of the astronomical refraction. It is noted that all such errors cause deformation of the satellite trail and in its relation to the background stars. The suggested corrections may be applied to all models of sidereally-driven cameras
