- Sony reel to reel video tape recorder - 1 Update
Tim Schwartz <tim@bristolnj.com>: Sep 22 09:52AM -0400 Hi there, These 1/2 inch machines came in 2 generations, the CV series which were propitiatory skip field machines, so only played tapes recorded on another Sony CV series machine. All of the Japanese manufacturers did that at the time. Then they standardized to the EIAJ-1 standard, full field machines, and all of the makes made tapes that would interchange. the Sony machines were the AV3400 (luggable) AV-3600, AV-3650, and later color machines AV8400 (luggable) and a AC operated one as well (AV8650?) As I recall from my high School days in the later 1970's, the mechanical design was similar to the audio reel-to-reel machines, with idlers and belts. The slip rings on the rotating heads needed attention too. Please note that all of this info is for USA market NTSC (Never The Same color) machines, and is subject top the (in)accuracy of my memory of 45 years ago.
