What distinguishes the picture of Saticon cameras are the streaks on moving (usually by panning the camera of course) bright lights, particularly on night scenes with the gain cranked up. Such as the footage from that night.

The studio had Bosch KCP 60, by the way.

Where did you've seen KCU40 with Timişoara logo?

I think in U.S.S.R. there where made some color tv cameras.

Indeed. Is this a subject of interest? Then it should get its own thread.

Czechs made some plumbicon cameras: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vRKSO0Gfovc

I guess the people to be seen from 9:18 had no idea that they would end up on Youtube... And who had to cope more with the lighting: The old beasts or rather the fancy smartphones?

If you want to see a real production with these Tesla cameras, just hit Nemocnice na kraji města into the search field. This series (not the "20 years later" run of course) has been produced with them exclusively, except for some handheld shots with a TK 76.

Have these Tesla's ever appeared outside Czechoslovakia?
