Early Television Camera |
||||||
 |

|
||||||
| A television camera uses a sensitive electronic tube to change light into electrical impulses that can be transmitted to television receivers. Early television cameras used tubes called iconoscopes that required bright, controlled lighting conditions, but tubes developed later overcame this limitation. Pictured is a television camera from 1956. | ||||||
