Anyone any idea what this is worth?

    It's a JVC GY-X3 camera works with VHS cassette tapes and has all the bells & whistles on it even a 3CCD chip.
    I know it was used for broadcasting and recording matches.
    To buy new it would've cost an arm and maybe half a leg.
    It has great image & sound quality and it is one heavy beast to carry.

    I wonder what it's worth these days?

    Not much, maybe a couple of hundred euro if you're lucky.

    If you are not that desperate for the money, stick it up in the loft for a couple of decades then flog it as a 20th century "antique".

    I'm serious by the way ;) some really old cameras from the 20's right up to some rare models from the 60's can fetch a good few quid.

    Now I'm starting to wish this camera was from the 30s or 40s :)
