Description

The Sony SLO-260 was the first of Sony's "SLO" industrial Betamax models, where "O" stood for "Office." Based on the SL-7200, it added professional features including an audio VU meter, manual audio level control, and audio dub capability. Unusually, the Pause button did not lock as it did on the SL-7200.
