technology, virtually all data - from the lens until just before
recording onto the tape - is processed in unitary digital format.
During signal transmission, there is significantly less
interference,
fluctuation and impairment of picture quality.
Super-VHS & S-VHS ET Recording
The VS-7, VS-5, and VS-3 incorporate both conventional VHS
and
super-VHS format designed for superior picture quality.
Meanwhile, inclusion of Super-VHS ET gives Super-VHS level
performance
even on normal VHS tapes - high picture quality at low cost.
