#Sony EVS7000 question

Is the HI 8mm Sony EVS7000 capable of single frame recording.

Nada from what I've seen discussed. Single frame costs about $3500 on up.
Sanyo's SVHS decks are often mentioned as a lot for the dollar. In Hi8 I'm
not sure the deck model number but I recall it's over $5k.

Thanks for the info

I think the Hi-8 unit John was talking about is the Sony EVO-9650. This unit
is loaded. 8mm time code generator/reader (not RC time code), variable speed
noiseless slo-mo, PCM audio, digital frame buffer for storing the image while
it's been recorded, and a wire remote with a jog/shuttle dial.
I think the V-decks are also capable of single frame recording but I'm not
sure. Don't know much about the V-decks I'm afraid. If they are capable, these
might be the ones to go with, as they are a lot cheaper than the EVO-9650.

I think I've seen it said that Vdeck must lay down a minimum of 4 frames per
recording pass.

FOUR FRAMES?! I suppose after you've made your first pass, you'd have to
back up 3 frames and start the next pass from that point to end up with a
single frame. Wouldn't that make single frame recording a lot of fun!(g)
