These "mad englishmen"! Fantastic guy!

Would have been nice to see how the picture looked like from one of these old cameras, today!

Excellent segment from that show, I recognize the camera collector, his name is Paul Marshall, I occasionally exchange emails with him as I'm a camera collector myself and have a Marconi MK3 too. Paul and Dicky Howett (another camera collector) run a "history for hire" type business called Golden Age TV Recreations www.golden-agetv.co.uk/ which they loan their historical broadcast gear out to filmmakers, producers etc. as props.

Where are the old Ferhnse:s? (german cameras)

Wrong aspect ratio of this clip! Should be widescreen 16:9 and not the old 4:3!

Wrong aspect ratio!!! I hate when people post videos in the incorrect aspect ratio and expect people to watch it as if nothing is wrong. YOU CANT WATCH AND ENJOY VIDEO THAT IS SQUISHED SIDEWAYS!!!!! It would literally take two minutes to FIX AND REPOST THIS!!! And never do it again. Always make sure the aspect ratio is correct when encoding video. If you don’t know what you’re doing, get someone who does Or just DON’T post videos!!

cool.
