Television Camera System

Here's something a little different for the forum. An RCA TK31B Field Camera System, early 1950's. The picture shows the one complete system, the TK31A camera with 50mm, 90mm, 135mm, 200mm lens turret, the TD11A tripod; field power supply unit, field camera control unit, field sync generator unit.

There is more; two more camera bodies, could be restored or used for parts, 2 ea CCU, PS & sync gen. Over all about 800lbs.

If anyone is interested in this equipment email me off line for a complete list and price.

I don't have any of the cables, but they may still be around I'll know in a week or so.

Chuck

That camera looks similar to the one I recall seeing while on a tour of the NBC studios in Rockefeller Center back in the early 70's

They had it in a small hot room and it was live. There was a monitor next to it that you could see yourself on in real time. IIRC it was B&W which struck me as odd......especially after having seen a control room filled with color Curtis Mathes monitors (or so I recall).
