Super-8 Films in Television Broadcasting

Abstract

Television broadcasts which include film clips in the super-8 format pose the question whether and for what purpose this format is appropriate for television use. Based on practical experience within the Bayerische Rundfunk (Bavarian Broadcasting System — BBS) the possibilities and limits for the integration of the super-8 format into television operations are discussed, together with prospects for development of image and sound equipment appropriate for television use.
