BBC Optical test bench for tube testing

This camera was made by the BBC research Department at Kingswood Warren in about 1948-9.

 

It was to investigate the resolution of different camera tubes and determine the optimum operating conditions for each type.

 

The tube fitted in this picture appears to be a midget Image Iconoscope type.
