26 The Journal of the Association of Cine-Technicians August, 1935 BAIRD TELEVISION The Baird Horr LTD. e Receiver giving a bright Black and White CRYSTAL PALACE. Picture. 8" X 6". camera, and the intermediate film scanner, can, in a moment, be adapted for either long distance or close-up shooting, the high definition spotlight transmitter will undoubtedly find its place in the scheme of things for some time yet to come. The simplicity of this form of transmitter, coupled with its complete reliability and ease of operation, outweigh its limitations as to subject matter and entertainment value. Certainly for the broadcasting of talks, appeals, song recitals, and similar items, the spotlight system is still unrivalled. It is, of course, too early to prophesy whether the public will be satisfied with the transmission of films, or whether it will demand a continuous programme of actual events taking place while they watch. Certainly during the first decade of high definition television broadcasting the transmission of films will undoubtedly form the major part of the daily programme. This will be due, not so much to the fact that the transmission of stage scenes still presents a certain amount of difficulty, as to the fact that the organisation to run a "direct pick-up" programme must, of necessity, take a certain amount of time before it functions smoothly, while films are in themselves ready-made programmes and possess the advantage of being repeatable at intervals if desired.
