Abstract: It is the purpose of this article to reveal some of the previous and present activities, as well as future initiatives of the EBU in developing specifications for film and television camera lenses. A survey is given on those lens characteristics which are decisive for the resultant image quality, and some essential details of the recommended measuring procedures are described.
