(This is from an old home page of mine, below is the equipment I had in 1999 before I sold most of it to buy my house. The EVW-300 I sold in 1998 a few months after I moved to Texas. Other equipment I bought living in Texas)

Sony BVP5/BVV1A BetaCam

Here are a few images captured from tape

Ampex CVR-25 Betacam recorder/player (SP playback)

Sony DHR-1000 DV VCR (consumer DV full size tapes)

The camera on top is a Sony EVO-9100 Hi8 2/3 single CCD camcorder
I no longer have this camera, but I should of kept it. It had a beautiful image for a single CCD

Great format next to Betacam. I dub all my Betacam footage to DV and then to my PC for editing.

I am available in the Dallas/Ft Worth area.  I specialize in TV news mainly, but available for field work. I was a freelance TV news videographer for WISN TV in Milwaukee, WI for 8 years (1990-98) until I moved to Dallas, TX.  I used Sony Hi8 equipment for that mainly, and my camera was a Sony CCD-V220 Pro 8mm at the start, and then I moved to a Sony ENG EVW-300 3CCD Hi8.
