Re: 1960s/70s Philips video camera
Hi Nick
I'm fairly sure it's tube, I've attached some photos.
Being from the 80s wouldn't surprise me to be honest as it's got a SCART to 6 pin DIN cable with it, not that the DIN cable fits anywhere on the camera, might not be original to the camera?
It was being used under what I'd say decent lighting, but the camera might disagree with me on that.
I did wonder about the Television claim, not that it bothers me as I'd have wanted it either way, but it has got "Training C/Hill WKS" written on the plug, although the plug might not be original, of course.
I've attached photos below, there's only the extra 5 pin DIN socket, which I believe a microphone would be connected to it. (A 3753/00 microphone was included, not that this works being plugged into the camera, either) I've not been able to get a picture out of it yet, but I'm assuming B/W.
That Sony camera sounds interesting too!

Glad to know it was domestic, it's progress to finding out it's model number and year, not that that matters either, just fun to know. I think it's fully open? I've adjusted all the lens controls and the optimum picture is what I've described, maybe I should've been clearer too, it isn't exactly an image but a slightly lighter patch on screen.
Thanks
