Why Sony's Beta Videotape System Failed--Part 2
You can support this channel on Patreon! Link below
This is the continuing exploration of Sony's repeated missteps in the development and marketing of the Beta videotape format.
Link to Part 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FyKRubB5N60
Also, since making this video, I've made a much more recent video on the Betamovie itself! Check it out here: https://youtu.be/a47kMoYkES0
The segment comparing the image quality between Beta and VHS was de-interlaced rather poorly by Premiere when rendering this video at 30p. Therefore, both formats look worse than they do in real life. The original footage is correctly interlaced at 60i, and in my upcoming video with simply that footage I will upload at 60p and hopefully it looks more like it does on my end. Trust me, they look pretty darn similar. Plus, that video contains more complex images to analyse the data a little more thoroughly, so stay tuned!
