I wouldn't fancy wiring this connector up😱! Inside the Hirose connector of the 100 way #Quantel Dylan cable that connects your Quantel Editbox, Henry or Hal to it's Dylan disk array.

Some amazing work here from @StudioPaeper recreating the iconic BBC 'CoW' ident from the 1980s on my #Quantel HAL Express (from 1995).

Recording a clip of uncompressed SDI video onto a #Quantel HAL and Dylan disk array from 1995 (with 20 @zuluscsi solid state disks). HAL was launched in 1993 and turned into a post-production tool for making moving TV graphics, compositing and effects throughout the 1990s.

Finally after months of work by myself and others we have managed to restore this #Quantel HAL back to working. The Dylan disk array now running with 20 ZuluSCSI disk emulators too. Videos on the story coming soon

I have three of these HD video camera modules after i started a futile project. They are LeadCCTV PE1005S modules all brand new. They are free to anyone who wants them.

A good friend spent quite a few hours making this awesome new bumper for my YouTube videos. Made on their vintage #Quantel HAL Express which is pretty much 30 years old. The modern aspect is the music and the video upscale which are both AI. Thank you @StudioPaeper !😍

Something bizarre is happening in the lab; symmetrical hard disk stacking! 👻

A very kind person just donated this slightly broken #Quantel V-Series Presenter Panel. Used on the Quantel Picturebox for live playout of stills. It uses the gorgeous HDSP-2000 LED matrix displays 😍. Does anyone remember using one?
