Up for auction is my EC-35. This is an extremely rare piece of broadcast / production history. This was the absolute gold standard for video cameras in 1983,designed to equal or surpass the quality of 35mm film. It was so special that Cannon produced proprietary T- stop prime lenses for it. Camera does power up but I don't have a lens to see picture. This should really go to a museum or collector. Tripod is not included in auction.This is a large camera ,similar in size to a Mitchel 35mm motion picture camera . Ikegami's video craftsmen have developed an electronic cinematography camera that rivals the film look of 35-mm cameras- without the cost of developing film. Now you can have video convenience but with film quality. The EC-35 has been designed from the bottom up to match the convenience, handling, and quality of 35-mm cameras. Think of the possibilities this will open up for you: quality productions at lower cost, faster productions, being able to see results right away without having to wait for dailies, endless possibilities.
Performance
The EC-35 uses 2/3" Low-capacity diode-gun Plumbicon pickup tubes. The EC-35 has a complete micro-processor that will automatically perform all of the set-up functions for you. All you do is aim the camera at the test chart, push AUTO SET . and wait for the SET UP light to go off. The EC-35 has an unusually wide dynamic range that makes the picture look like it was taken with a 35-mm film camera:
