Those tower cams are rigid.Yeah, that 03:45 shot has a very clear wobble to it, with some of the later at-desk shots nearly coming right up to the desk and/or in line with where the ramp is - seems improbable not to be a handheld camera and, if it was from a floor-based camera, you'd want to get somebody to check the wheels. Plus, the super-low shot during the interviews is almost level with the rostrum, whereas the base of the 'electricfiends' cameras is very clearly chunkier than that - even if their near-mythic height flexibility was true, I doubt it can get that low.
And, as I think somebody else mentioned, seems very odd to credit two camera operators if you are using just robot cameras - Newsnight typically only credit two and they use manual pedestal cameras.
