    Interesting comparison. One question that comes to mind is with the AGC switch missing on the A1, does that only mean that AGC is always on, or does that maybe mean that the gain is somewhat more limited, so nobody would even want to turn it off anyways? The AG6400 would certainly be interesting to see as well 👍

    I'm not sure if there was a colour camera from that era that had more light sensitivity than the A2. They were outstanding for low light performance for their time. Newvicons were also extremely resistant to image burn in. They could lag a little on highlights but no image sticking. Such a leap forward from the previous models all round.

    Thanks for the video, nice little tube camera! It seems National did some homework miniaturizing internals after their "VZ-Cxx" lineup. I have VC-C75 and it has pretty much the same arrangement, similar video ICs and power board, but it is bigger. 13:18 - not really, camera is misadjusted, there should not be such a green tint. 29:02 - I'd not call that small corrosion "a write-off", I've restored much worse than that 39:39 - that's partially a ROM (that's why it has a window), but it is also a special IC that is paired to the tube (and those should be replaced together). IC is called "FAMOS IC" and it manages dynamic beam focusing, dynamic color correction and dynamic bias compensation for the pickup tube. And the coefficients/tables for those corrections are written into the EPROM on the die. 43:09 - wow, IR filter is just snapped on, that's good to know, 'cause it is all dead and blacked out on my VZ-C75. And please, don't trash the pickup tube, keep it as spare (together with FAMOS IC). Or sell those.

    We still have the NV8610, but unfortunately a multi tension transformer the machine has inside was gone decades ago, and the technician was unable to get a replacement at the time. Now, I would like to find a replacement of this part in order to come back the VCR to life.

      I don't know, this one came with nothing other than what you see in the video. I think the battery type would depend on what battery housing is mounted to the back. It looks like there would be different options for it.

    It's a rebranded Panasonic. Spent many hours on those machines, the best of the 1/2" era before S-VHS and digital.

      They were branded Panasonic in some regions where there was a naming conflict. Everywhere else and Japan they are National. More recently the Panasonic naming was adopted worldwide.

    if I want to connect it to modern tv do i need to use al 4 in outs or i can use just two of them ?

    • @Elecami

      You would need to TV with composite video input or use an adapter from video to HDMI. It might be difficult to get a nice picture on a new TV because the VHS signal quality is poor.

    when I connect a usb voltmeter directly to my Lenovo charger without connecting to laptop , I get no reading.. connetcing with usb extension to laptop and still no voltage . strange ??

      It will only output when connected to a device or PD trigger of some sort. Not sure about USB extension, would depend if it is rated for USBC PD.

    Just about to get one of these too. Would be interesting to see if a SSD will definitely work and what specific ide to sata interface will work.

      I think you would need to copy what id on the existing drives to new drives for it to work. Not sure if it is fussy with drive type.

    Now that’s a dope looking camera. I want so bad but probably hard to find one in working order. I have a SVHS VCR and a basic consumer SVHS-C camcorder. Wish it would have caught on earlier and they would have released home video movie releases on SVHS.

      It's likely they all have bad capacitors now, but still a possibility of getting lucky. If one was was stored well.

    Oh man i reversed polarized my nv m8 and this video just saved me, i was the same problem as the one that didnt go on, do you think that is okay to just jump the 12vUNRG to the top of the transistor ? Thk

    • @Elecami
      @Elecami Місяць тому

      Why do you need to jump it to there? Sorry I'd have to go looking in the service manual to work it out. If it was connected reverse polarity, maybe a fuse is blown.

      @Elecami I did the same jumper as you to the transistor and the problem was fixed, maybe when reversed polarized burned out some contacts that supply the transistor

    Thank you for the in depth video! What do you think is your favorites of these? Do you think the Bigscreen is a good upgrade?

    • @Elecami
      @Elecami Місяць тому

      Bigscreen is easily my favorite. Ease of use , comfort, good picture, works directly with SteamVR light house / base station things, No Space calibrator to use VIVE trackers, no other software. Second place, I would recommend PlayStation VR2, good overall experience. But lacks light house tracking, will makes things difficult if you want to use VIVE trackers and Index controllers.

      @Elecami you have eased some of my anxiety about considering it as my entrance into VR. I am currently slowly building a stronger and more up to date PC, then looking at the Bigscreen for VRChat and other games or sims. I wish you success in your UA-cam electronics journey!
