There are two models, a player only and a recorder/player. The player is around $9000 and the record unit is $13000-$15000. The disk media is $150 per disk they ae WORM disks so they are not re-usable. They are genlock-able and record in composite as well as RGB. These units are professional quality (Expensive for home use) but if you can find a rental company that has them then a project could just cost the price of the disk plus rental. The record unit has a telephone style keypad to record frame numbers and entry of number of frames to record. It also has RS232 serial capabilities and this is where it gets really useful. Hope this helps, Jeff P.S. The model numbers are Panasonic TQ3031F for the recorder and TQ3032F for the player.
