The format was a classic example of German engineering at the time: a
very
good product with absolutely worthless marketing.

I actually remembered that you had one of the portables when this thread
started. I figured you'd unloaded it a long time ago.

Weren't they distributed by Bell & Howell then? I seem to remember
something odd like that.
I thought the studio VTRs did eventually have a frame TBC that let you
see shuttled images better? Or maybe that was just Still frame. But
their portable was a lot smaller than the Type C portables until the
Ampex VPR-5 came out. (Terrible timing to come out at almost the same
time as betacam.)
