Recording Video Camera in the Beta Format

In this paper we shall introduce the small diameter head drum VCR System that uses exactly the same recording format as the original large diameter head drum system. Having identified the different factors of the tape pattern with the mechanical parts, we were able to develop a new technique of recording the same information as is done in the original format. As this is specialized for only recording, we were able to drastically reduce the number of both the mechanical parts and circuits in our compact all-in-one camera/VCR.
