Re: Cheap(oxymoron?) Beta Deck

Hey Will--

I highly doubt you'll find a usable deck for less than 3 or 4 grand, but you might try ebay, or look thru some of the trade mags for a deck. Note however that there are two kinds of BETA--Betacam and Betacam SP. A Betacam deck cannot play SP tapes as far as I know, while a Betacam SP deck CAN play both tapes, but can only record SP. So be careful with the type of deck you buy and be sure to check with the TV station to find out which version of BETA they are using.

And any beta deck I've seen comes with S-video, composite and component in and out.

HTH
