Message from the President

Greetings ACS colleagues and friends

Its always nice to get in touch with your inner Power Ranger, as you can bear witness to.

...However, here at the BSC Expo in London the Power Rangers seem to be way out of date, or perhaps its me.

Anyway, here at Battersea Exhibition Centre the BSC have again mounted an Expo that turns heads.

There is so much new and exciting equipment and technology on display, that it defies explanation. If you'd like to check it out yourself take a look via this link:

But having said that, I will attempt to share these two informative BSC Expo days with you all when I return from the Expo.

What's New @ HQ

Two new cameras on display at the HQ on loan from Viv Scanu ACS.

Above is a BNC MITCHELLL in un-modified original condition
(a rare find these days as most BNCs have been modified in some form over the years)

Below one is a pristine 1920 vintage hand cranked slap gate BELL and HOWELL 2709 camera with serial no.409
