Another Tyco TVC 8000 Video Cam

So this week at a junk market I came across another Tyco Video Camera for £2. Hopefully Im going to use them both for a few experiments including some circuit modifications and possibly some stereo imaging. When the tests are done ill post a tutorial.

Washingline

here is a video made using a toy video camera (tyco tvc 8000) that was running low on batteries creating vertical bars on the ccd. I then ran it through feed back and effects. It was pointed at my washing-line in afternoon daylight conditions

Toy Cameras

So I now have few new toys, a 1980s Fisher Price Pixelvision PXL-2000 camera that records video on standard audio cassettes! and a Tyco TVC-8000 another small black and white camera from slightly later, both use a CCD, both are small and grey 


now the PXL- has a huge floowing and many online groups and film festivals dedicated to its users so I wont bother including all the links here (they are easy to find) but the Tyco TVC-8000 is less well known and used (which is why  it only cost me £1) here is an excellent website about its capabilities
