Hey Dave,

Currently watching the 1978 Rose Bowl game on ESPN Classic. I can't believe how blurry the picture is. I know tape was capable
of providing a much better image even in 1978.

And Frenchy,
We hauled those huge cumbersome TK-41's all over the place in the 60's & 70's. Football, baseball, parades, you name it. They were all we had color wise for many years. It was amazing the places we could shoehorn those things into. 4 men just to lift the camera body without the viewfinder attached.

Probably explains my back problems today.
