- Abstract
- The LogEtronics, Inc., Focatron Image Sharpness Meter, when used as a tool to determine optimum focus on motion-picture optical printers, yields accurate results in a simple and efficient manner. The Focatron unit was tested and found successful in an Eastman Kodak Co. motion-picture laboratory where high quality requirements exist. This unit proved particularly useful during daily printer changeovers and provided the operators with a convenient and simple method to afford daily printer focus checks.
