    Precise scanning size and linearity are most important in

    • A black-and-white camera

    • A plumbicon

    • A single-tube color pickup

    • A saticon

    Correct Answer
    A. A single-tube color pickup
    Explanation
    In a black-and-white camera, only shades of gray are captured, so precise scanning size and linearity are not as important. In a plumbicon, which is a type of camera tube, linearity is important but precise scanning size is less crucial. In a single-tube color pickup, both precise scanning size and linearity are crucial because it needs to accurately capture and reproduce colors. A saticon, another type of camera tube, may not require as precise scanning size and linearity as a single-tube color pickup. Therefore, the most important factors in this case are precise scanning size and linearity, which are best met by a single-tube color pickup.

                is more important for the gamma correction for the camera tube.

    • Color

    • Monochrome

    • Both Color and monochrome

    • Either of Color or monochrome

    Correct Answer
    A. Color
    Explanation
    Color is more important for gamma correction for the camera tube because gamma correction is a technique used to adjust the brightness and contrast of an image. Since color information plays a crucial role in determining the overall appearance and quality of an image, it is essential to accurately correct the gamma values for each color channel. Monochrome images, on the other hand, do not have color information, so gamma correction for monochrome images is not as critical as it is for color images. Therefore, color is the more important factor in gamma correction for the camera tube.
