Home Video Asylum

TVs, VCRs, DVD players, Home Theater systems and more.

Possibly...

..this is a way to extend the abilities of VHS a few more years. Currently, however, most VCR's are made with disposable parts and are often non-repairable. I would call a local repair shop and ask if they see these units very often, and how good they might be (most repair guys will really let you know if something is good ot not!)

I would look online to see how 'high definition' the recording can be, then compare it to known high definition items. Just make sure that the high definition you are looking for is not just high def as far as VCRs go (i sure hope that makes sense....!)

It looks like a nice unit, but to be sure, head out and see one first, if possible. The only question I have is the bullet point sith only the following listed:

1080i, 720P, 480P and 480i

We know what these mean, but why are they listed all by themselves? Can it really do this? Input or output? hmmm.....

You might also try shopping at AudioAdvisor.com. They have far more information on the unit, and are a known good online retailer.

Okay, I just noticed a catch to this: you need to buy the DF300AU Digital VHS Tape, which are $14.95 each. A little mroe than regular tapes, so yet another thing to think about.

Looks like fun!
