Philips LKD15 Television Camera side view
This first generation shoulder mount colour camera has the camera body
behind the shoulder. With 1" Plumbicon tubes the mounting position
was a compromise. The later LDK15L version was carried in front of the
shoulder, again a difficult position, it was not until the availability
of smaller tubes that the cameras became more manageable.
The camera was based on the LDK5 with minimal electronics in the camera head, a hip pack was used which connected to a PPU (portable processing unit) this in turn connected to the LDK5 base station reception unit.
