Description
The Fisher VBS-7000 was a Betamax VCR from Fisher (a Sanyo subsidiary). Notable for its liquid crystal display (LCD) for the tape counter and clock — an unusual feature for its era when most VCRs used fluorescent or LED displays. Fisher was Sanyo's subsidiary brand used primarily in the VHS market, making their Betamax models relatively uncommon.
