Hello Marc and thanks for the reply. I bought this BNC from a collector as a display camera. It is only complete from the exterior with no camera movement box inside the main blimp. It nice for a display because to the novice, it appears working as it has all the exterior components including bellows matte box group, external viewfinder (with parallax cams), 50mm Baltar lens, working follow focus, 1,000 foot magazine blimp and motor blimp. But unfortunately for me, they are non-matching numbers. The viewfinder is mint and has "BNC 109" stenciled on it. The main camera blimp housing has "BNC 32" molded inside the casting near the dissolve window and the follow focus plate next to the helical thread has "31" stamped on it. It's a rack over with a working L bed and rack over handle.
There are a number of working features that I thought I would share with interested BNC collector members such as the FOX optical blooper "take number" feature and a built-in heater. I'll be posting a thread on this with detailed pictures. It's quite a wild looking BNC. I thought about buying a camera box and racking it in but the strength of this unit is as a display (because of the non-matching numbers).
Still trying to decide if I should return the milled logo name area to original. Any thoughts on this from fellow members would be highly appreciated.
