Description

The Panasonic PV-1200 is a first-generation Omnivision VHS VCR manufactured from 1979 to 1980. It features all three recording speeds (SP, LP, and SLP), a clock, programmable timer, and an analog tape counter with reset. Notably for its era, the PV-1200 includes front-panel audio and video input/output jacks, a feature that would not become common on VCRs until the 1990s.
