Abstract
AN interesting demonstration of the greatly extended adaptability of kinematographic apparatus was given by Mr. Kasimir Proszynski at a meeting of the Royal Photographic Society on Tuesday, February 18. In introducing the “Aeroscope” hand camera, the lecturer made some general remarks dealing with the problem of flicker, the presence of which, more or less pronounced, has been of considerable trouble to producers of moving pictures. He stated that up to the present time it had been generally understood that the suppression of flicker was in some manner due to the phenomenon of persistence of vision, which, according to the experiments of Helmholtz and other investigators, continues about one-seventh of a second after the light impression has ceased.
