Three WWII armbands

[bldrhouse]

Since these are rather brief, am posting all three.
The first two are photographer related but would like a translation better than the auction house provided.
The third was listed as "Japanese Military Police," but since there is a small black stamp "MP," I'm assuming this is from post-war Occupation Period. Any knowledge appreciated, and I will also inquire about this one on a WWII military reference site.

Not much to translate here. The auction house probably did as well as could be expected.
1. 新聞　寫眞係　Press (Newspaper), Photography section (or just, "photographer" if you like)
2. 新聞寫　　Looks to be an abbreviation of Press and Photography. Anyway, that's the intent of the writing - to announce that the person is a press photographer. The symbol belongs to the police department.
3. 憲兵 - Usually would refer to Kempeitai, the infamous domestic secret police in Japan during the war years, ensuring people were being sufficiently patriotic. However, the "M.P." seems incongruous with the Kempei. MP (Military Police) is an abbreviation and style that would be antithetical to the Kempeitai. Could it be an armband used/co-opted by the occupying authorities after August 1945? I suppose its one possibility.

Majestic again, thank you for clear info.

and yes, the Kempeitai armband with MP stamp is probably just post war.
