The Konica CV-301 is possibly the smallest portable tube based camera made. The Cosvicon tube is actually in the handle grip. Otherwise, this is a rather entry level camera with, unfortunately, rather mediocre performance.
On the other hand, the Emerson VCP700 appears to be an early example of an Orion VCR. Although it is still considered entry level, it is rather well built, and performance is rather decent, especially on EP speed.
