Very cool to see a built in maintenance menu. Makes sense though considering this is a pro machine, essential for making sure things work. Still it would have been cool to see something like this, if not a simpler version on prosumer machines.
They went out of production in 2002. That was whwn the analog only Betacam SP deck manufacture ended. The DigiBeta and BetaSX continued along with HD Beta through to 2016 when all tape based VTRs ended. So future generations will never know the wonderful VTR. They will never know the stress and anxiety of the sound of the one and only master of a once in a lifetime event being eaten by a hungry VCR.
Nice, this will come in handy for my 1800

I can't believe these UVW machines are 30 years old now.
