In the above configuration, when the zoom operation switch 10 of the operation device 9 is operated, the zoom motor 2 of the zoom lens 1 is driven, and the zoom ratio is changed. When the motor 2 operates, its rotational position is determined by the position detection circuit 3.
Detected by Since the rotational position of the motor 2 detected by the position detection circuit 3 is associated with the zoom ratio in advance, the position detection signal from the position detection circuit 3 is used as information indicating the zoom ratio to control the motor speed of the interlocking control unit 7. It is applied to circuit 8. When the rotary table operation switch 11 of the operating device 9 is operated in this state, the vertical movement motor 5 or the left and right rotation motor 6 operates at a speed controlled by the motor speed control rotation 8 to rotate the television camera in the desired direction. let

It is also possible to operate the zoom operation switch 10 while operating the rotary table operation switch 11,
In either case, the motor speed control circuit 8 slows down the rotational speed of the motors 5 and 6 when the zoom ratio is large (telephoto), and conversely when the zoom ratio is small (wide-angle).
Then, speed control is performed to increase the rotational speed of the motors 5 and 6.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing another embodiment of the present invention in which the zoom lens does not have a position detection function.
The same parts as in FIG. 1 are given the same reference numerals. Although the electric zoom lens 1 of this embodiment can change the zoom ratio by remote control using the zoom motor 2, the zoom ratio information cannot be taken out to the outside. Therefore, the interlocking control section 7 has a motor 12 controlled by the zoom operation switch 10.
and a position detection circuit 13 interlocked with this motor 12.
has been established. The motor 12 operates in the same manner as the zoom motor 2, and its rotational position is detected by a position detection circuit 13.

With the above configuration, even if the zoom lens 1 does not have a position detection function, the position detection circuit 13 can be connected to the motor 12.
Since the rotational position of the zoom motor 2 can be indirectly detected from the rotational position of the zoom motor 2, the position detection signal of the position detection circuit 13 can be given to the motor speed control circuit 8 as information indicating the zoom ratio. Therefore, in the television camera turntable of this embodiment as well, the rotation speed of the television camera can be changed in accordance with the zoom ratio as in the previous embodiment.
