Abstract: With the rise of high-definition television, consistent picture quality is critical if the end user is to enjoy to the full extent of what the system has to offer. In maximizing the potential of high-definition television, the service provider must give camera line-up the attention it needs. Camera technology lightens the load on the vision engineer to use those craft skills to better advantage. Camera line-up requires more than a simple black-and-white balance at the correct exposure. In order to achieve the most consistent pictures across several days on a multicamera shoot, several factors need attention. Recent advances in line-up charts make this easier than with traditional versions, but limitations still exist. This paper showcases new camera line-up technology in which many former limitations are overcome. New technology allows analysis of a camera's colorimetric performance, identifying areas of deficiency and giving the user the tools necessary to make improvements. Finally, what does the future hold? And what can we learn from today so that future standards change for the better?
