They are Sony PD150 DVCAM cameras which are quite small digital cameras but are perfect for filming rallies as they are light and enable you to move around a lot more than the usual heavy ones where people tend to put them on a tripod and stand in one position. The only thing that they lack is a a really good long lens but you just have to chose your positions carefully. Incidentally, one of the cameras has a wide angle adapter on which allows those camera operator interviews to work so well.
You can buy second hand NTSC cameras for about £800 nowadays but really the best bet is either a Z1 or Z7 which can film in HD and DVCAM and have both a good zoom and a good wide angle - new they're about £4000 but second hand about £2000-£2500. These small cameras are perfect for rallying and I don't know why more people don't use them as it gives you so much more freedom and you're not so tired at the end of the day!

Those may be good for my crew to use but how much did it cost you.
