Abstract
Certain of the characteristics of television have their counterparts in motion pictures, and motion picture film and motion picture practice are applicable to television. Some of the problems and limitations pertaining thereto are outlined, and the following television-image characteristics are briefly discussed: (1) Number of scanning lines and the relationship to image size and viewing distance; (2) number of frames; (3) interlacing. The effect of film and optical system limitations on reproduced television images is illustrated by photographs, and curves are given showing the spectral characteristics of Iconoscopes. The screen color characteristics of Kinescopes are also discussed, and the overall range and gamma characteristics of a television system are reviewed.
