Abstract :
Features of motion-picture film reproduction by the medium of television are considered, and an explanation is given of the continuous-motion flying-spot system. The methods adopted to overcome particular problems are analysed, and the development of special facilities, both mechanical and electrical, are described, including the mechanical filter system, film-shrink compensation, and negative film reproduction. In the main, the description is that of a 35-mm channel, but mention is also made of the 16-mm film and the reproduction of lantern slides.
