Now really, for the sake of accuracy (apart from the date, but I'm not to blame for that one),
this
is how it would have looked in 1997:

It has been made by a BBC Northern Ireland production team based in Belfast for a while now, but Jeremy's links are shot in London. (Just like Sunday Morning Live is made in The One Show studio in London by a BBC Northern Ireland team)
Indeed... here's me filming them last week

I'm more confused about why Points of View has a BBC Northern Ireland credit. Is it actually made in Belfast now?

Looks like one of those Canon DSLRs designed for video (C300?) with a iPad based TelePrompTer hood on it.
The hell is that camera body?

The C300 isn't an SLR (i.e. single lens reflex) design, instead it's Canon's answer to those who wanted a DSLR look but at broadcast quality.
It's a compact video camera with a single, large, sensor and thus delivers the shallow-depth-of-field look, and allows you to use prime lenses (as well as photographic zooms), but without the compromises you get with most DSLRs when it comes to pixel-binning (which causes aliasing/moiré) and poor quality codecs that don't meet broadcast specs. (Plus it doesn't have the EU recording limits and seldom overheats...)
C300s are the work-horses of factual production at the middle-range of the broadcast range (and capable of excellent results), sitting below the Sony F55 and Arri Amira (which are used at the higher-end), and above the XF305.
Certainly nothing to apologise about if you're shooting a show like Points of View on a C300.
The C300 Mk II meets EBU Tier 1 for HD production and Tier 2 for 4K. I think the original C300 meets the original Tier LS that is Tier 1 HD production for Large Sensor cameras.

Thanks for the information.

There are plenty of factual programmes shot solely on C300s or the XF305.
Poor craftsman's tools and all that....

I thought this too. I would've thought that all Invictus Games coverage online would be a part of the BBC Sport website, however there is just one link on the BBC Sport homepage that goes over to a BBC One programme page which includes a live page.
Am I missing something here - is there a reason why it's not a BBC Sport production? Is it more packages than sport highlights?
