Abstract :
The fundamental technical challenges and solutions in converting still images from film through the digital domain to video are discussed. These include tone scale, colorimetry, quantization, and resolution. In addition, a particular implementation of a slide-to-video transfer unit which uses a single CCD (charge coupled device) sensor with digital signal processing is described
