Ex ABC cameraman Barry Lambert restored that van along with the PYE MK3 camera chains to working condition, I posted a thread some months ago about the footage of the Queen's visit to Canberra in 2000 which was filmed on these cameras, thread can be viewed here http://videokarma.org/showthread.php?t=251569 and the actual video can be viewed here http://www.abc.net.au/local/videos/2...04/2507171.htm complete with the image orthicon's trademark halo effects on the highlights!
