[QuadList] was Helical, Quads, now Marconi cameras

[Gideon4]

Hi Park

The EMIs did have a limited range of elevating and tilting,
http://www.tvcameramuseum.org/emi/2001/emi2001_1.htm The BBC modified theirs
to give a fixed elevation and a larger tilt range.

For info the Marconi MkVIIs viewfinder jut tilted, but over a wide range of
angles.

Regards

  I noticed the tilting viewfinder on the cameras in "Network". Did the EMI
cameras have a tilting viewfinder like the Marconi's?

    I believe EMI Cameras were used in Network.  The studio scenes, as I
recall, were shot in Toronto.\
