Description from the seller

I am selling a professional JVC KY-1900 camera, an iconic model from the early 80s, used at the time in TV production and broadcast video.

Year: 1983
Brand: JVC
Model: KY-1900
Type: Professional tube-based video camera

Specifications
• Professional studio/field heavy broadcast camera
• Tube technology (Trinicon) → image quality typical of the 80s
• Ultra-robust construction, true “broadcast hardware” quality
• Numerous manual adjustments: iris, white balance, gains, etc.
• Ideal for:
• video equipment collectors
• cinema/set/clips retro décor
• artistic projects seeking a vintage analog video look
• museums, audiovisual schools, exhibitions

Condition
• Old equipment, sold as vintage gear
• Aesthetic condition: like new

What you should know

This is not a modern digital camera: it’s a genuine-era machine, heavy, professional, with the charm and constraints of analog. Perfect for enthusiasts and creative projects, less so for plug-and-play use

Pickup must be arranged
