I still have several tube-pickup color cameras that I mostly bought in the early and mid 1990s for use on ATV (Amateur Television, TV over ham radio). Usually I looked for the higher-end ones with character generators and similar features in them. The ATV transmitters of that era had the ten-pin connector on their front panel, and I remember buying a few of those connectors at a local parts store as well for my own add-on projects.
One day when I have more time, I will enjoy playing with that equipment again. I do remember that one Panasonic camera (PK-958 or similar model number) has a purity problem. I did pick up a service manual for that camera and maybe one other Panasonic. Fun stuff!
