The per

26、formance to be assessed in this standard is limited to automatic functions relating to light input from the lens and to the electronic output from video cameras and the video camera portions of camera-recorders. This standard defines test patterns, measurement conditions, methods of measurement and

27、the presentation of measured results so as to make possible the comparison of the measurement results. This standard intends to provide an objective method of measurement for each characteristic of the automatic functions but the results of objective measurements may not correlate well with the subj

28、ective assessment of automatic functions. It does not specify limiting values for the various characteristics related to automatic functions. 2 Normative references The following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this part of IEC 6

All normative documents are subject to revision, and parties to agreements based on this part of IEC 61146 are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent editions of the normative documents listed below.
