Even an old CCD camera will not look the same as an old tube camera from the 60s and a 60s camera will require an engineers attention, even if it is working it will soon stop working. They were like that when they were new and 50 + years have not helped the reliability.

Thank you, Brian! I was kind of thinking that in terms of a tube camera; I'd like to at least try this on the cheap to start with. Sort of a proof-of-concept. I realize the CCD won't look quite the same as a previous-generator TV camera, but if I can get somewhat close without busting the bank, that would be good cheap fun. I sincerely appreciate the info!
