Betacam
The original betacam format was launched on august 7, 1982. It is an analog component video format, storing the luminance "Y", in one track and the chrominance, on another as alternating segments of the R-Y and B-Y components performing compressed time division multiplex or CTDM.
Its a family of half inch professional video cassette products developed by sony in 1982. All betacam variants from analog recording betacam to betacam SP and digital recording betacam use the same shape video cassettes, meaning vaults and other storage facilities do not have to be changed, when upgrading to the new format. The cassettes are available in two sizes, small and large. The betacam camcorder can only load small magnetic tapes, while television studio sized video tape recorders (VTR) designed for video editing can play both S and L tapes. The cassette shell and case for each betacam cassette is coloured differently depending on the format, allowing for easy visual identification. There is also a mechanical key, that allows a video tape recorder to identify, which format has been inserted.
