P.S. Do the camcorders really use magnetic deflection???

Steve

I have a Sanyo laying here, apart, and it does. I am trying to find
the lens control circuits so I can mount a small CCD camera to it, and
use it to magnify what I am working on. The CRT has a seven pin base,
and a second anode connector on the side of the bell.

Your CRT would need four more terminals for electrostatic deflection,
and four output transistors to drive it. Since the tubes are small, and
run at fixed sweep frequencies, using magnetic deflection makes more
sense.

Take a look at this little cutie! ;-)
