Double Play Photo!

Thanks to Normand Latour, we not only have a photo of his father, Raymond, operating this Marconi Mark II, we now have the best shot I have ever seen of the rare Vinten Pathfinder dolly. An electric version of the Pathfinder came later, but you don’t see many of these manually operated models. It’s almost like the Houston Fearless Panoram dolly, but this had a foot rest and a stay level seat that is a much better arrangement. Raymond Latour was the first cameraman hired to work in Studio 51.
