Think B is similar to TC7 in camera configuration. Manual jib, one manual ped (though you don't have to use it or can lock it off), with the other cameras on static ped bases, but with remote PTZ heads with elevate options. (i.e. you can't move the cameras around the studio without manual effort, but can reframe shots remotely from a fixed position) You can run the remote cameras manually, but the heads on them don't give you quite the smooth manual control that a proper manual head does, so you probably wouldn't do much in the way of on-shot moves (though remotely you'd probably be better off)
Be interesting to see if it is an RF or cabled steadicam. My guess is cabled.

Interesting that the programme is coming from studio B. Presumably this means a jib operator might be required. Are the other cameras in B able to be operated manually and remotely?
