Additive Color Scenetester

Garland C. Misener

The printer optical system employs a dichroic beam splitter, rotating aperture wheels for frame-to-frame color balance modulation, adjustable trimmers in each color beam, and intensity controls for various exposure levels. A selected color negative frame illuminated by this system is projected to a camera on the printer, in white light operation. Exposure lamp and camera clutch controls are in a separate cable-connected unit. The printed test for each scene consists of a normal balance frame and a ring of six color balances at each of five density levels. Two higher exposure levels may be added by switch control.
