Here is something you don't see every day!
This is one our OLD analog S-VHS video cameras, broken down into its component parts for the purpose of "vintage" restoration
Panasonic Video Camera
Consumer grade
Model: NV MS-50A
Uses VHS-C tape
HISTORY - CONDITION PRIOR TO DISMANTLING:
Fully functioning prior to dismantling - however two issues arose and it was decided the best thing to do was to offer the equipment for spare parts.
FAULTS:
Both NiCd battery packs (VW-VBC4E 9.6V 1.4Ah) are absolutely shot. No amount of recharge efforts will revive them, they have been safely discarded
Light corrosion on the INSIDE of the battery connector/camera inside - both of these power wires would need to be cleaned back and re-soldered (if this section was being used in any case)
The VCR transport module has an mechanical issue, tape loads but will not feed around the drum and no rotation.
KNOWN WORKING COMPONENTS:
Optical lens system (TV Zoom Lens 9-54mm f: 1.2) clean no fungal growth observed.
Viewfinder module (CRT based Mono screen!)
Case mechanical components are all undamaged (no marks, no cracks or missing sections!)
Accessories such as the battery charger are fully functioning
I am offering THE WHOLE LOT (as pictured) but if someone only wants a particular part, such as the viewfinder, battery charger or the optical lens system then I am fine with that (reduces shipping costs)
Each photograph is labelled to help identify the components pictured - please refer to these labels if you only want parts of the camera.
If only buying particular parts of the camera, the purchase price is THE SAME - but the post cost will drop because of the reduced bulkiness/weight
Please note that if using the checkout shipping calculator, it will work out the shipping cost on the basis of total 3Kg weight 40cm x 30cm x 20cm packed - individual modules would greatly reduce this calculated postage cost.
