Replay of both Small and Large
cassettes
Despite their very compact body size, J series
Compact Players can play Large as well as Small
size cassettes.
525/625 versatility
J series Compact Players are easily switched between
525/60 and 625/50 playback modes. This enables
them to work in international environments.
Betacam, Betacam SP, Betacam SX, MPEG IMX and Digital Betacam
tape playback capability
All J series Compact Players have the capability to
play back Betacam SX, Betacam SP and Betacam
tape recordings. The J-2 Compact Player has the
added capability of MPEG IMX tape playback.
The J-3 Compact Player adds the playback capability
of both MPEG IMX and Digital Betacam recordings.
During cassette loading, each format is automatically
identified for playback, so no menu settings or
switching is necessary. (During Betacam SP playback, the
AFM audio tracks are not replayed, and video performance is equiv-
alent to UVW Betacam quality).
