U sure? Looks like a camcorder to me

In the mighty boosch the Moon does a monologue, it turns out he uses a telescope to watch Patrick Moore do a shit on a salad. Any artefact used as a viewing tool I like to shout Telescope in the voice of the moon, an eastern European simpleton.
But yes, it's a video recording device not a camcorder.

'video recording device' doesn't really roll off the tongue.
