Does anyone know of studies that address the gendering of film technology, such as cameras? I'm familiar with work like this in popular music (particularly on the electric guitar), but other than Mulvey's discussion of the camera's male gaze, I don't know of anyone who has specifically addressed filmmaking equipment as masculine and how this might contribute to females' reluctance to get involved in film production. Any references on this topic would be much appreciated.
