Can anyone identify this camera?
This was from a production shoot sometime between the 1960's and 1970's at Frontier Village amusement park in San Jose CA, Sorry I have no other info. Just curious if anyone can identify the camera and roughly the timeframe it would have been in popular use.

After some light googling It might be a Visual MK10. Consensus?

I agree it is a Visual Camera. One of the last Black & White Cameras. It used an image orthicon with a zoom lens as opposed to a turret.

I sent the photo to Bobby Ellerbee, a major collector of vintage TV cameras:
Here is his reply: "Yes, it's a Thomson CSF 301 Steve. It has a 3" IO inside and is from 1960. Slick isn't it? Bobby." Link to Bobby's "Eyes of a Generation" site:http://eyesofageneration.com -Steve D.
