Période

THIS TYPE OF CAMERA USED C. 1982- 2001, AND POSSIBLY LATER.

Canada

EXAMPLE OF CAMCORDER USED BY TV STATIONS IN 1980S FOR ELECTRONIC NEWS GATHERING (ENG). RELATIVELY LIGHTWEIGHT & POWERED BY AN INTERNAL BATTERY, IT WAS A HIGHLY PORTABLEDEVICE ABLE TO RECORD A HIGH QUALITY PICTURE UNDER NATURAL LIGHTING CONDITIONS & TO PRODUCE BROADCAST QUALITY SOUND WITH A DETACHABLE MICROPHONE. IT THUS ALLOWED STATION OWNERS TO REDUCE NEWS CREWS TO A SINGLE CAMERA OPERATOR/SOUND TECHNICIAN. IN SOME CASES, IN FACT, NEWS REPORTERS PERFORMED THESE FUNCTIONS THEMSELVES. PRIOR TO THIS, ENG CREWS CONSISTED OF A CAMERA OPERATOR AND A SOUND CREW STANDING BEHIND. A CABLE WAS REQUIRED TO CONNECT THE CAMERA TO A SEPARATE VCR, FURTHER LIMITING MOBILITY. (Ref. 1)

Fonction

USED TO CONVERT LIGHT SIGNALS (MOVING PICTURES) INTO ELECTRONIC SIGNALS SO THEY CAN BE FED TO A TV OR RECORDED ON TAPE ALONG WITH THE ASSOCIATED SOUND.

Technique

BETACAM FORMAT INTRODUCED BY SONY IN 1982, AND SOON BECAME THE MOST POPULAR ENG FORMAT IN THE WORLD, EFFECTIVELY BECOMING THE INDUSTRY STANDARD. IT EMPLOYED A 1/2' BETA VIDEO CASSETTE AND USED HELICAL SCANNING TO LAY THE VIDEO TRACKS ON THE TAPE, BUT IT WAS OTHERWISE UNLIKE THE CONSUMER FORMAT. BETACAM WAS ONE OF THE FIRST COMPONENT VIDEO RECORDERS. THAT IS, IT SEPARATED THE LUMINANCE (BLACK & WHITE) AND CHROMINANCE (COLOUR) COMPONENTS OF THE PICTURE SIGNAL AND RECORDED EACH ON SEPARATE TRACKS ON THE TAPE. THE CHROMINANCE INFORMATION, MOREOVER, WAS RECORDED DIGITALLY. TOGETHER THESE TECHNIQUES PROVIDED BETTER PICTURE QUALITY. (Ref. 1) SONY STOPPED PRODUCTION OF THE BETACAM IN NOVEMBER, 2001.
