=== Eastman Television Recording Camera === In September 1947, [[Eastman Kodak]] introduced the Eastman Television Recording Camera, in cooperation with [[DuMont Laboratories]] and [[NBC]], for recording images from a television screen under the trademark "Kinephoto". NBC, [[CBS]], and [[DuMont Television Network|DuMont]] set up their main kinescope recording facilities in New York City, while [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]] chose [[Chicago]]. By 1951, NBC and CBS were each shipping out some 1,000 [[16 mm film|16 mm]] kinescope prints each week to their [[Network affiliate|affiliate]]s across the United States, and by 1955 that number had increased to 2,500 per week for CBS.<ref>Wesley S.
