This time we look at a Portable Video 2000 VCR. It uses the format: Video Compact Cassette, VCC. It is a Philips VR2220.
It looks very similar to the VR2340 and VR2334 that we looked at in the previous videos, only sliced in half. It allows the Tape mechanism part to the taken out with a video camera for recording. In the days before camcorders.
We explore the features, take a look inside and see if it works.
Be careful of old Rifa RFI Film Capacitors waiting to let the smoke out!
