I have a Sony SuperBeta HiFi SL-HF950ES that's still in my Home Theatre Cabinet (not so much in use today). I Also have the Sony JOG/Shuttle Remote RMT-232
I have the same model in my setup and the same remote control which I understand was an optional extra, at least in the UK. Really a great remote and it'll be in a video coming up soon as some of the buttons aren't working.

They were amazing - especially seeing the higher-end kit.
Nice! I wish my HF-100 was in such a good shape.
They certainly do vary a lot in condition and the clock VFD so commonly goes dim with age too.

Certainly are some low hour examples out there of the Betacam kit. Still love Betamax the most though.

Interesting and I wonder how they got around the copy-protection and/or macrovision although maybe those particular tapes didn't really have any?
