SECAM

SECAM (Sequential Couleur avec Memoire or SEquentail Colour with Memory) is one of three main television standards throughout the world. It was introduced in the early 1960s and implemented in France and the USSR and some of the Middle East.

The SECAM system uses the same bandwidth and line frequency as PAL but transmits the colour information sequentially.

The National Film and Sound Archive of Australia acknowledges Australia’s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we work and live and gives respect to their Elders both past and present.
