Die Deutschen Panzer - 7hrs of wartime footage
Posted by Dsotm on Sunday, January 30, 2005 7:06 AM
I picked up this series of videos in a 2nd hand bookshop yesterday for $30. Each one is an hour long and covers a specific tank:
1.The Tiger (including footage of King tiger,Elefant, and Sturmtiger)
2.The panther
3.Panzer IV
4. Panzer III
5. Panzer II (missing from set)
6. Assault Guns
7. Self-propelled weapons
8. Half-tracks and Armoured Cars

The fils are copyrighted to VAF, Vaduz, Lichtenstein and published by Chronos Films UK around 1996. As I do not have a VCR ( I will tomorrow) I wanted to know if any one had seen or was familiar with this series. All of them seem to concentrate heavily on actual combat footage.

I intend to convert them to avi files this week. This will make it easy to grab frames for reference.

I have 3 of them films (Tiger, Panzer 4, Panzer 3) and I love them. I watch them constantly to get ideas for weathering and battle damage. Where did you get them at as I would dearly love to finish the collection.

2nd hand bookshop in Felixstowe, UK. Unfrotunately it was the only copie they had. The titles are now published by 'The Big Little Movie Company', but seem to be out of print.

I have the Panzer IV video and have watched the others. It's great to have these videos playing while building models.
