I can just tell you it was used for a few years by KCRG TV in Cedar Rapids, IA. They had very good video with it.

Here are some sites with information, nothing about the type of camera:

You might take a look at my photos here of and read captions on N145BH, an Aerospatiale AS350D ASTAR with PICTORVISION, a gyro-stabilized Academy Award-winning aerial motion picture camera that might be perhaps more elaborate (read: expensive) than the TV news camera. It includes the WESCAM camera data.
