RCA TK-20 Iconoscope Film
Chain Camera

(Click on picture for high resolution image)
After World War Two, RCA introduced image orthicon cameras for studio
and remote pickup use. However, the prewar 1850 iconoscope was used
in their film chain camera. The iconoscope was capable of producing a
better picture if it had a large amount of light, which was possible
in a film chain. The above camera and stand were donated by the Ohio
Historical Society.
