Great video - mine are all "working" machines so I don't buy museum pieces like these so I'm quite jealous. I have that same Video8 machine which is a curiosity as it does multi-track PCM which really is quite a marvel for the time and I'm certain the technique heavily influenced DAT. I could spend hours looking through those. I've never seen the Alba twin deck either (I have the Amstrad version somewhere in the store-room) and I know of the Alba version but have never seen one. Great video! I also have a pair of elderly HF950 skate loading Betamax machines, and of course plenty of VTC5000s, the good old Betamax workhorse.
