New FR-10 will still be “new” 

when other makes are obsolete. 

Only this system gives you every one of the latest operational 

features. And packs ’em all into a low-profile, space-saving 

cabinet that fits flat against the wall - in fewer square feet of 

floor space than any previous system. And, FR-10 alone is ready 

now for tomorrow’s automated accessories. 

FR-10 combines everything you’ve ever wanted in a magnetic 

film recording system. 

Like dual design, for example. Lets you switch from 16 to 

35mm -and back again - in seconds, thanks to RCA’s unique 

plug-in sprocket and head assemblies. Speed and equalization 

changeover are automatic, with only one interlock system 

needed. 

Like silent, selective head switching - so you can update any 

section of any track without re-recording the whole reel. And 

exclusive “Unilogic” motor control system lets you choose 

between using either manual or automatic control. 

Like automatic loop setter. It lets you thread up much faster and 

more easily. FR-10 rewinds -through the sprocket - at 

1000 feet per minute, while handling up to 3000-foot reels. And 

you get complete metering for each channel, too, with up to six 

tracks available. 

On top of all that, FR-10 delivers reliability even beyond what 

you’ve come to take for granted from RCA. Along with matchless 

sound quality, of course. For information, write: RCA Film 

Recording, 2700 West Olive Avenue, Burbank, California 91 505, or

If we haven’t got 

the exact color 

film processor 

you need 

we’ll buildr it. 

We think you’ll find exactly what you need in Jamieson’s complete line of color 

film processors. 

But there’s always that special case, that particular need, that unique re- 

quirement. 

So, if one of our 8mrn. 16mm. 35mm or 70mm color processors doesn’t fit 

your need, we have the experience and proven designs to build exactly what 

you need, at the speed you want. 

And even though we can modify and adapt our processors to special appli- 

cations, some things about them never change. 

Every Jarnieson color film processor incorporates our proven and patented 

small reservoir tube tanks. These tanks contain only about one fifteenth the 

amount of chemistry required by ordinary open tank types. 

You get highest quality color, freedom from scratch hazards, lower day-to- 

day chemical costs and the gentlest, most reliable film transport system 

available. 

There’s one more important thing. Cost. We think you’ll find Jamieson color 

film processors among the lowest priced in their class. 

For complete information on Jarnieson color processors, call or write today.

Miller, and W. L. Wolf, Eastman Kodak 

Co., Rochester. R. A. Eynard, Ada/ 

Gevaert, Inc., presented his paper, “Geva- 

chrome Original Films for a Sharp and 

Brilliant Television Image.” The third 

part of the program was a film, “Processing 

of Optical Sound Tracks on Color Films 

with Emphasis on Silver Sound Tracks on 

Improved Eastman Ektachrome R Print 

Film.” The film was introduced by Ray J. 

Wulf, Eastman Kodak, New York. who also 

answered questions following the presenta- 

tion. - Paul F. Wittlig, Secretary-Trcu- 

surer, New York. 

NEW YORK, Nov. 19 - The New York 

Section heard three papers at the Novem- 

ber Meeting: “Random Access Program- 

mer,” by Stan Busby, Ampex Corp., “A 

Fully Electronic Editing System,” by Keith 

Campbell, Adventronics, and “An Ap- 

proach for Standardization of Monitor 

Calibration,” by Gideon Fiat, American 

Broadcasting System. The first two papers 

had been presented at the 106th Technical 

Conference in Los Angeles. Mr. Busby’s 

presentation was excellent and generated a 

lot of questions. Mr. Campbell, who was 

scheduled to present the second paper, 

advised about one hour before meeting 

time that he had become ill and could not 

get to New York. Manager Don Collins, 

Tele-Cine, Inc., volunteered to read the 

paper and did a remarkably good job, but 

unfortunately without Mr. Campbell, it 

was not possible to have the scheduled 

equipment demonstration. Two things 

were noteworthy. First, the Ampex paper 

was good enough by itself to make the 

evening worthwhile, and second, a large 

portion of those attending were very ob- 

viously video oriented and had not attend- 

ed meetings for some time. - Paul F. Wit- 

tlig, Srcretary-Treasurer, New York. 

OHIO, Oct. 15 - The Ohio Section meet- 

ing of the SMPTE was preceded by a cock- 

tail hour and a short business meeting. 

The main part of the program was held at 

station WUAD-TV in Parma, Ohio with 

nearly 50 persons in attendance, including 

students from Eastern Michigan Universi- 

ty’s UFH station EMU-TV. The tour of 

the new facilities of the United Artists 

Broadcasting Corporation was punctuated 

by an informal presentation by W. C. 

Wiseman, Vice-president of UAB. and was 

reccivcd with high interest by the mern- 

hers. The program was followed by a post- 

session social hour with refreshments. 

- Rohcrt W. Wagner, S€cretary.Treas~irer, 

Columlms, OH. 

ROCHESTER, Sept. 11 - H. B. Archer, As- 

sistant to the Director, Graphic Arts Re- 

search Center, Rochester Institute of Tech- 

nology, presented an illustrated discussion 

on the general subject of reproduction 

photography. In addition he discussed 

problems peculiar to halftone reproduction 

for photo-mechanical color reproduction. 

Dr. J. A. C. Yule, Research Associate, 

Rochester Institute of Technology, dis- 

ciissed the principles and applications of 

color scanners. He also gave an excellent 

presentation on the inherent limitations of 

accurate color reproductions. - J. M. MC- 

Donough, Secretary-Treasurer, Rochester,

employs direct electron bombardment of the 

film, eliminating phosphor granukritg, faceplate 

halation and camera-lens losses and 

distortions. 

The 3M Brand EBR-100 far surpasses the 

conventional kinescope in reproduction quality 

and in the ability to produce 

films. It opens new horizons 

mass film distribution for educational and 

aining purposes. 

The EBR-100 is a machine that every major 

V studio, dubbing center, film lab and governent 

communications center will want to em- 

. Easy to install, completely s 

t beam monitoring provides simple, 

positive adjustment of 

exposure and gamma. 

Secondary electrons 

imaging the film target 

verify that focus, size, 

and linearity are correct. 

You can choose between 

a direct positive or a 

film negative with the flick of a switch. The sys- 

tem also is switchable from US standard 525- 

line to European 625-line requirements. 

The EBR-100 records on low-cost fine grain 

film. Overall resolution exceeds 1000 lines. The 

film uses conventional processing and is shown 

34 inches deep, weighs approximately 1000 Ib. 

and costs about $55,000. Optical or magnetic 

sound is available at extra cost.

ARRIFLEX 16BL‘s 

play the numbers 

for Las Vegas spectacular: 

2 months, 25,000 miles, 70,000 feet! 

Mutual of Omaha wanted to put on an employee convention that would be rernern- 

bered-and Chapman/Spittler, Inc. of Omaha, in producing the film program for 

“Jetogether ’69”, found themselves tackling an assignment they would never forget. 

The show was to present, to a total audience of 3300 people, interviews with the 

insurance company‘s most successful salesman-each interview being linked to- 

gether by a “jet plane” ride from one salesman’s home town to the next. This 

meant, of course, that Chapman/Spittler had to do the actual traveling. 

And what an itinerary! In less than two months, the 3-man production crew had to 

set-up and film in no less than 24 cities across the U.S. and in Puerto Rico. They 

covered 25,000 miles-more than the equivalent of going around-the-world- 

filming in almost every setting imaginable: at airports, at Notre Dame Stadium, at 

the Indianapolis 500, in a locker room; high atop mountains, way out on beaches, in 

and on automobiles, aboard boats, golf carts, and even walking along hand-held. 

Under so many circumstances, in so many places on such a tight schedule, camera 

reliability was essential. Arriflexes were chosen. 

Loaded into Chapman/Spittler’s own aircraft, 16s and 16BL Arriflexes became part 

of an overall film unit uniquely designed for filmmaking on a continental scale. With 

so much travel in so short a time, the crew could rarely stop to screen rushes, to 

reassure themselves that the rigors of travel at this high-pitched pace, and the 

many changes of climate, had not affected camera operation. 

The proof of the pudding came with the two performances put on by Mutual of 

Omaha in Caesar‘s Palace. Interspersed with 35mm slides, the Arriflex-shot footage 

had to fill nine 10x14 ft. screens-as much a challenge to resolution, sharpness and 

registration as ever there was. As reported in the July ’69 Business Screen, the 

show was an outstanding success. 

Gambling may be commonplace in Las Vegas, but Chapman/Spittler, like every 

production company, cannot gamble with their assignments. It was with this under- 

standing that each of the Arriflex models was engineered. From the sensible, 

versatile design that adapts an Arriflex to every kind of project, to the sturdy, en- 

during construction that keeps it going in the face of constant use and abuse, 

Arriflex has continually proved how well it can stack the odds in its users’ favor.

Mag n a-Tec h’s 

electronic method 

of altering sound tracks 

makes “‘looping” obsolete. 

If you are still making hundreds of loops 

for a single feature, then consider a fast, 

precise and economical method of altering 

sound tracks that makes “looping” obso- 

lete. 

The new Magna-Tech system electronic- 

ally synchronizes a reel of picture with a 

reel of full-coat magnetic,,sound-recording 

film. Footage and frame PRESETS’ per- 

mit the recordist to select the scene to be 

“dubbed“ and to fully control the advance 

and return of the film as the actor voices 

the line to be “dubbed.“ 

The system Is so accurate it will even 

permit the change of a single word with- 

out danger of erasing an adjacent word. 

Electronic Looping Console 

High speed return of the film to “start” 

saves time and permits new starts without 

waiting for a “loop” to complete its trip. 

Actors, who so often succumb to the 

rhythm of a loop, are spared this hypnotic 

interference. Acceptable “takes” can be 

stored on the 3-track film and replayed for 

final selection. 

A complete remote control system is 

provided the director so that, once the 

recording engineer has preset footages, 

the director can take over if he wishes 

and directly control every facet of the 

recording. 

35mm Projector 

The Electronic Looping System pre- 

cludes the need for cutting loops and elim- 

inates the need for editing of the track. 

Complete reels of the motion picture are 

run in synchronization with the full-coat 

magnetic film on which the sound track Is 

recorded. Transfer of the best takes is 

then made to the third track of the same 

recorder. 

This track now has all of the final takes 

in sequential position and ultimately per- 

mlts the screening of the picture and the 

flnal edited track in perfect synchronira- 

tion. From this point the track Is ready to 

go to a mix and no further editing is re- 

quired.

To process Kbdak films best,, 

there5 nothing like a package 

It’s only natural.The Kodak films 

you’re using are the finest we can pro- 

duce. One important reason is end- 

less testing during manufacture. Of 

course, we use Kodak chemicals to 

test ourfilms.We call this“Match- 

Testing” because the films are 

matched to the chemicals and vice 

versa. So if you use Kodak packaged 

chemicals when you process black- 

and-white, ME-4 or ECO-2 color, 

or black-and-white reversal, you can 

be sure you’re getting the finest proc- 

essing. 

‘ ‘M at c h -Tes t i n g” is actual I y the 

final test for our packaged chemicals. 

There are many more before that.We 

test the initial ingredients, the mixed 

ingredients, and thefinishedchemical. 

We even test the packaging, so it 

comes to you in the best condition, 

When you get the chemical, it’s so 

right that you don’t even need a lab 

chemist. 

To make it easier to get the Kodak 

packaged chemicals you need, we 

now have a direct “One-Stop Shop- 

ping Service” for chemicals. Kodak 

warehouses throughout the country 

provide speedy delivery of the pack- 

aged chemicals you order. 

We top everything off with exten- 

sive and readily available technical 

resources. In short, we like to do 

everything we can to make sure our 

films grow up into great movies. 

Would the Kodak “One-Stop 

Shopping Service” for chemicals 

benefit you ? Talk to your Kodak 

Sales and Engineering Representa- 

tive about it,or call the nearest Kodak 

office listed below.

A Norelco 3-Plumbicon color TV camera, 

designated LDH-1 and designed especially 

for applications in the fields of education, 

medicine and CATV, has been introduced 

by Philips Broadcast Equipment Corp., 

One Philips Parkway, Montvale, NJ 07645. 

The camera is based on the same design 

concept as that of the Norelco PC-70 but 

it has been adapted to meet the needa of 

nontheatrical broadcasters, including bud- 

getary requirements. It is priced at 

$21,425. The LDH accepta either Plumbi- 

con image pickup tubes or (in a lower- 

priced version) 1-in vidicons. Switchable 

circuitry is designed into the system to 

complement the response characteristics of 

both sensors. Without any wiring modifi- 

cation, different modules can be plugged 

into the rear of the camera to obtain two 

basic camera versions. Without wiring 

modifications different modules can be 

plugged into the rear of the camera 

to obtain either RGB or NTSC encoded 

operation in accordance with the EIA 

scanning system. The LDH-1 will also be 

available in the PAL version. 

The LDH-1 can be supplied with or 

without its 7-in viewfinder. The live cam- 

era version (with viewfinder) also in- 

cludes an additional video switching and 

audio unit which is mounted beneath the 

viewfinder. Program sound is FM-modu- 

lated on a carrier wave and is available at 

a VHF socket. 

The camera uws the Philips prismatic 

beamsplitting system. To ensure perma- 

nent alignment, the assembly comprising 

the beamsplitter. pickup tubes with their 

associated deflection coil assemblies and 

FET preamplifiers is integrated into a sin- 

gle aluminum-alloy cast block and fixed 

into position. Camera electronics include

The Model VS600 switcher, a new video 

switcher system using digital control logic, 

has been announced by Ampex Corp., 401 

Broadway, Redwood City, CA 94063. The 

switcher uses computer language commu- 

nication in the form of serially coded digi- 

tal logic between control panel and elec- 

tronic rack matrix to reduce interconnect- 

ing wires and increase reliability and per- 

formance. The VS600 has a buildingblock 

design in the matrix and logic which en- 

ables utilization of any combination of sig- 

nal inputs and outputs. Features include 

an automatic transition dissolve system 

which provides the operator with push- 

button control of the mode as well as the 

speed of program and scene transition. A 

rack-frame switching matrix employs solid 


state circuits and diode transistor logic 

components which encode and decode the 

analog signals from control panel switch- 

es into the binary format. The rack assem- 

bly is wired with printed wire interlocking 

connectors. Each crosspoint can be inaert- 

ed in plug-in fashion to permit simplified 

assembly and modular expansion on a one 

by one basis. The rack-mounted matrix 

frames also include control logic, amplifi- 

ers, tally control and power supply. The 

basic VS600, including the remote control 

panel and matrix rack frames, is about

for permanent storage. The machine con- 

tinuously records information from a Tv 

camera with the last 7.5 to 80 seconds (de- 

pending on disc and head size) always 

available for replay. Pictures are viewed 

on a television receiver. As new informa- 

tion is recorded on the disc, old informa- 

tion is erased. The new systems range in 

price from $8,000 to $50,000 and are avail- 

able in either portable or rack-mounted

lines representing negative input signal 

excursion limits and the other 15 indicat- 

ing positive input signal excursion limits. 

Although all lines appear continuously on 

the TV screen, actual alarm limits are IK- 

lected by means of external contact closures 

which may be programed to activate any 

combination of alarm limits. Active alarm 

limits are also in6cated by a change in 

character of the vertical marker lines dia- 

played on the TV screen. Model 122 is

The generation gap: 

it may be America's 

best hope. 

Millions of young Americans not only 

stand taller than their fathers-they're 

aiming highcr. Sometimes, in a different 

direction. 

They have a vision of a more equal 

economy and society, and the will to 

take part in shaping them. 

Over 7,000,000 young men and 

women are now in our colleges and uni- 

versities. Keeping up with their num- 

bers, and the challenge of filling their 

knowledge needs, has brought about a 

financial crisis in higher education. 

Tuitions, on the average, pay only % 

the cost of educating a student. The 

other % must come from other sources. 

And the dilference in dollars amounts 

to billions. 

Our higher education must keep mov- 

ing ahead-with more facilities. larger 

faculties-and academic advances that 

will help this generation move ahead. 

It can't be done without more help 

from more individuals, more busincsses 

-with gifts and grants that encourage 

progress and innovation. 

To better understand the need, ask a 

college. 

Give to the college 

of your choice.

The 1540 Strobolume electronic atrob 

scope has been announced by General 

Radio Co., 300 Baker Ave., West Concord, 

MA 01781. The unit produces high-intensi- 

ty, short-duration flashes of light. A wide- 

beam angle makes possible stroboscopic 

viewing and speed measurement of large 

equipments. The beam pattern of the 

Strobolume at 10 ft is a 7- by 13-ft rectan- 

gle. The lamp assembly can be adjusted to 

produce a narrow 3- by 13-ft strip of light. 

Construction of the Strobolume is modu- 

lar. The power supply, control unit and 

lamp assembly are separated and cable- 

connected for applications requiring re- 

mote operation. Prices for the Strobolume 

begin at $775. 

A new battery-operated transient am@- 

tude detector capable of reproducing a 

3O-n~ width pulse to 90% amplitude ac- 

curacy has been announced by Electro- 

Metrics Corp., a subsidiary of Fairchild 

Camera and Instrument Corp., 88 Church 

St., Amsterdam, NY 12011. The unit, 

designated Model TAD-66, makes use of a 

high-impedance differential probe for 

handling input signals from 0.001 V to 

25 V. Four peak detectors, operating in 

parallel, sample and hold the input sig- 

nal after amplification. Two operate on 

the normal input and on the input in- 

verted to assure fully redundant peak de- 

tection. The outputs of each pair of peak 

detectors are fed to amplitude compara- 

tors. Each comparator sees only the high- 

est signal level that was fed to the detec- 

tors. A timing and sampling system built 

into the instrument alternately samples 

the outputs of the comparators to provide 

a pulse train, each pulse representing the 

highest transient seen during the sample 

time of the peak detectors. The detec- 

tors are automatically dumped upon be- 

ing sampled. The instrument is priced at 

$5,000.

In addressing business leaders, Roger Blough backed 

up this question with the alarming estimate of rising costs 

for higher education. “By the mid-seventies, annual expenditures 

will reach $30 billion, about double the 1965 figure.’’ 

It’s vitally important that every business evaluate investment 

in higher education-and do so in light of rising costs. 

Corporate contributions that are geared to yesterday’s expenditures 

aren’t keeping pace with changing needs. If your 

company has not yet started an aid-to-education program, 

it’s time to get involved. 

Business needs educated people to produce money. 

Colleges need money to produce educated people. With 

tuitions covering only about V3 of the soaring costs, colleges 

and universities must have more help, now, 

Write for: “HOW to Aid Education.” It’s a booklet for 

management-of particular interest, if your company has not 

yet established an aid-to-education program. Address: Council 

for Financial Aid to Education, 6 East 45th Street, 

New York, N.Y. 10017.
