Abstract: The color and persistance of the image formed on the P-7 tube, commonly used on radar sets presenting a map-type picture, make it necessary to employ different films and techniques in making still and motion pictures. Satisfactory motion pictures have been made on reversible Super XX film exposed through a No. 106 Plexiglas filter in a 16-mm camera equipped with a specially designed f/0.7 lens. Good still pictures can be obtained on fine-grain panchromatic or orthochromatic films at f/3.5 without the use of filters, although the use of a blue filter improves definition by minimizing “ghost” images not yet completely faded from previous scans. An automatic camera permitting the operator to view the tube while pictures are being taken has been devised.
