Alright, i tried to do some googling but couldn't find anything maybe you guys can help.
I need a prob for a possible upcoming movie, a news cast camera. I'm going to make it out of foam board but i need some dimensions. The type that field reporters use on the news. if anyone can find some good pictures of one and possibly even dimensions? I'd really appreciate any help i could get.

Go to ebay and type in AG-456 these are that type of camera. Sometimes you can get them cheap if they are non-working or are for parts. Actually it's the same type I am going to use to film with.
