Description
The Sony BMC-110 was the NTSC version of the BMC-100 Betamovie, one of the world's first consumer camcorders. Unlike the PAL BMC-100, the BMC-110 added auto-focus capability. Like all Betamovie units, it was a record-only device requiring a separate Betamax deck for playback, using Sony's Omega tape wrap system with a single video head spinning at twice normal speed.
