And by then you could buy a Betamax capable of recording three hours of high quality video on an L-750 cartridge. I know I did! I still have many boxes of L-500's and L-750's packed away somewhere. That original Betamax (which I eventually replaced with a newer one) was about the size of a suitcase!

What we got was the legendary JVC GR-C1. -- Watch my future television channel's public test broadcast! »thecanadianpublic.com/live

It came with the powered VHS adapter "case" that you popped the VHS-C cassette into so you could play back what you recorded on a standard VHS VCR. -- "It's all coming down!!" - Mike Holmes

My first camcorder when I was a kid was a VHS-C.
