Making Films & Videos/Camera for 'the office'

Question
Hi,
I've been wondering of what camera that has been used for TV series 'the office'?
Thanks

Answer
The office is shot in HD-CAM.  I think it's shot with a Cine Alta camera.  Many popular shows are still shot on 35mm film.  Ironically most of the public is fooled by the "broadcast in HD" message flashed at the front of most television shows into thinking all shows are shot on HD. A show can be shot on 35mm film and broadcast in Hd as well.
