1) Vintage Camera Model WV-D5000
1986 model. Made in Japan
2) Genuine Vintage Panasonic RCU Adaptor Model WV-AD37 S/N 6XZ00462 made in Japan.
👉 The Panasonic RCU Adaptor
Model WV-AD37 is a studio remote control unit (RCU) adaptor designed
for use with specific Panasonic cameras, particularly those in the WV-F15 series. It
essentially acts as a "back-end" that attaches to the
camera, enabling remote control and some power delivery functions.
👉 Here's what you need to know
about the WV-AD37:
- Function: It allows for remote control of
camera functions via a connected RCU. This typically includes control over
settings like iris, black level (pedestal), and perhaps other video
adjustments.
- Connection: The WV-AD37 uses a unique 14-pin
connector, similar in physical appearance to a K connector but with
different pin assignments. Panasonic used this same connector and cable
design (14C-30 and 14C-100 cables) for various cameras, but the specific
pin functions varied, meaning equipment with this connector isn't
necessarily interchangeable.
- Tally and Control Signals: The WV-AD37
appears to be involved in the camera's tally light system, possibly
activating the tally lights when an RCU is connected. Some control
signals, including tally, are reportedly time-multiplexed through this
connector, meaning they are transmitted sequentially rather than via
dedicated wires.
- Color Bars: The WV-AD37 also incorporates a
color bar generator. This is used for aligning the camera's output to
match the color bars generated within the adaptor itself, especially when
genlocking.
- Compatibility: While the WV-AD37 is
associated with cameras like the WV-F15, it may
be compatible with other Panasonic cameras that utilize the same 14-pin
connector and control system.
👉 Potential Uses and
Considerations:
- Studio Environments: The WV-AD37 is
primarily designed for use in studio or multi-camera setups where remote
control of camera parameters is necessary.
- Phasing: The built-in color bar generator
and alignment process are crucial for ensuring the proper phasing of the
camera's output signal, especially when genlocking to an external source.
3) Vintage Panasonic TV Zoom Lens
Model JM1.6-12x MGH
4) Vintage Tiffen 72mm Close-Up +2 Polarizer lens Made in USA. With hood and lens cap.
The Tiffen 72mm Polarizer Lens is for use in achieving macro-like results with almost any lens you pair them with. Close-up lenses are essentially diopters that you place over your lens in order to lessen the minimum focus distance by the amount specified on the filter. You can combine the filters together to increase their strength and to fine tune your close-up settings.
These filters are constructed from premium ColorCore glass for optical clarity and feature an aluminum filter ring with dual threads for ease when combining with other filters.
These filters decrease the minimum focus distance of any lens, providing macro-like results.
Dual threading permits you to combine the filters together or pair with
other types of filters.
