Re: CCD camera history
With all the rose-tinted nostalgia I omitted to say this would have been 1986 I think, and that the BVP-5 was the first Broadcast CCD from Sony. I have an idea that maybe there was a “Prosumer” model a little earlier, possibly the DXC3000.
( Although strictly OT my mention of the HL79 may be wrong and it could have been a BVP330. Brian(Beamcurrent) should be able to correct me on this since it was a single camera drama unit that came from Tel OBs)
Back on topic, just, we also had a machine that utilized a Reticon line array CCD to measure 16mm film tolerances.
