Purchased by [[Paul Hollow]] with x12 lens and genlock back in {{unsure|1994}}. At the time probably the best camera person's camera, knocked the socks off the [[Panasonic MS4]].
 
By 1996 YSTV had aquired an improved F10 Mark IIs with x8 lens and genlock back. A second Mark II was purchased in 1998 (and picked up by [[Matt Hammond]]'s dad who lived in nearby Chelmsford) with a x15 lens. This third camera allowed the [[Panasonic MS4]] to be dedicated to outside work rather than having to be back in the studio by evening to be the 3rd studio camera, and genlock source.
 
A second Mark I and an F15 (basically a MarkII in a grey case aimed at the professional market) were added later. {{unsure|Did some of these come from AV?}}.

The two Mark IIs and the F15 formed the station's main studio camera rig until mid 2004 when they were replaced by the [[Panasonic MS5]]s, mainly because the MS5s had better colour and needed less light to give good picture. Their last use on-air was [[Elections 2006]], although all 5 are still stored in the station.
