Modern Trends in Color Broadcasting Camera Systems
Recent developments in broadcast camera tube design have led to improvements in camera performance. This article compares two new camera tube systems that have recently become available for professional television cameras. The first is the 13mm 80XQ Plumbicon™, which is a complementary field (CF) system based on electrostatic focusing with an accelerating lens followed by magnetic deflection. An 18mm version of the CF Plumbicon is also discussed. The second system is the 87XQ MS Plumbicon, which is based on a combination of magnetic focusing and electrostatic deflection by means of a deflectron.
