Sony AVC-3210 B&W Camera

I recently picked up this Sony AVC-3210 B&W vidicon camera.


Too bad it's missing the viewfinder. Here's what it would have looked like.


After splicing on a new power cord, I was able to get a signal out that responded to varying light levels. The sync pules don't look quite right though.


I printed out a test pattern and pointed the camera at it. I couldn't get a signal in RF mode so I fed the video mode output into an RF modulator. Here's the image I got. The sensitivity and detail are good, but the vertical sync is messed up.


I tried to find service info online and came up empty. Anyone have a copy ?
