One of the main issues you will find with most any of the used beta sp decks for sale is #1, age. But they are quite old now and can be extremely expensive to repair should something go wrong. I use an IO along with an AJA Kona card for High Def work.Īs far as Beta SP decks go that's where things get tricky.Īs Shaun said, a BVW-75 was the cats meow back in the day. They offer quality products, and their support staff is second to none.Īn original AJA IO will give you every input/output you could ever need for Standard Def work. I have used both Blackmagic and AJA products for broadcast work and I prefer AJA. Kind of a lazy approach to something as serious as your business, to let an internet forum pick your gear because you don't want to do the research yourself. but I don't even want to think about researching hardware right now.Ĭan someone in the know just point me down a path to get me going? What equipment would you add to be able to pull the footage? I'm thinking an beta sp deck and some sort of capture card.
