1977: Sanyo VCM-2000 Small B/W Studio Camera.
.
Sweet! That's the only
way to describe this one too. Also fully functional, like the JVC TK-210.
This is a very small
studio camera of the late 1970's. Pretty much full automatic level controls
left the operator with only pointing, zooming and focusing to do his job.
It uses a 2/3" vidicon tube preceded here by a Tamron 6:1 (12.5 mm - 75
mm) f 1.8 zoom lens. This lens shows up time and again under every brand
name!
It has four switches
~ Power On & Off / ALC On & Off / Sync INT & EXT / Monitor
Video INT & EXT. Four operator controls (knobs) on the viewfinder;
Contrast, Brightness, H. Hold & V. Hold. Two screwdriver accessable
adjustments are for vidicon beam and focus set. Two jacks for Ext. Sync
& Video Output. Two indicator lights; Power & Tally.
HIGHLY DESIRED: Service
manual, operator's manual. Anyone know the pin-outs for the DIN jack on
this little fellow?
