More info on medical TK-41 used in Australia
A while ago I've posted a thread about a RCA TK-41 type colour video camera used in Australia for medical practices at St Vincent Hospital in Melbourne in 1965 http://www.slv.vic.gov.au/hwtports/0...hp004692.shtml .
I've been curious about this camera for a while and I've just came across recently in the Google book search a bit of info stating that a Marconi medical colour television unit was supplied to Australia in 1960. Unfortunately I can't view the pages of the medical notes as it's classified but the info given off the search results is enough to give me a bit of an idea about early colour television in Australia and the possibility the info is in reference to that colour camera in the photograph. The bit of info from the search results can be viewed here: http://books.google.com.au/books?hl=...-8&sa=N&tab=wp So it looks like this camera is a Marconi variant of the RCA TK-41 with a Marconi MK-III style tilting viewfinder. Also it may possibly have originated from Smith, Kline and French Ltd medical supplier according to the little info given too. Anyhow I hope more information comes my way in regards of this camera and where it may have possibly ended up after being put out of service.
