Advantages of S-VHS video recorders

You can edit from VHS to S-VHS, S-VHS to VHS, or, from
S-VHS to S-VHS.
●From VHS to S-VHS: Record VHS playback signals in the
S-VHS mode. Although the picture quality is inherently
limited by that of the original, the edited tape has better
picture quality than those made by VHS-to-VHS editing.
●From S-VHS to VHS: Because the picture quality of the
source material is very high, the edited tape has better
picture quality than those made by VHS-to-VHS editing.
●From S-VHS to S-VHS: All signals will be transferred with
minimum degradation.
