Hi Dave. Thanks for the link, I regularly visit Kris Trexler's site, yeah there looks to be some differences between the TK-40 and 41. As for picture quality, that I'm not sure of but I've heard that the TK-41C uses a filter prism which improves the picture quality a bit.
Speaking of TK-42 cameras, seeing they use a single orthicon for luminance along with the 3 vidicons for colour, when pointed to spotlights and other really bright objects are the halos black seeing it's one orthicon?
As for Fred Astaire show, that should be released on DVD, any chance of that happening? And has it ever been re-aired or excerpts of it been re-aired? Anyhow for a bit of fun I downloaded the quicktime video of that show from Kris's site and converted it to avi and ran it through Motion Perfect to get it up from 15fps to 60fps so I can get the live fluid motion feel of the clip and it worked quite well.
Now you mentioned there were other early video recordings around, any commercially available dating around 1958 and 1959? Also I'm really curious of seeing outdoor TK-40/41 broadcasts, if there's any commercially available I would love to get my hands on a DVD or VHS copy.
Cheers
Troy
