When RCA's system became imminent as the new standard CBS not wanting to invest in new color cameras decided to build a converter that would take the output of a field sequential color TV studio and convert it to the post-1953 NTSC system...They continued to use this into the late 50's when they stopped color broadcasts...Years later in the 60's when color set sales and broadcasts picked up and CBS was forced to restart color broadcasting they acquired new cameras and control systems that didn't rely on their failed field sequential tech.
