Everyone knows the JVC GR-C1 that Marty used in the first film, but did you know other camcorder companies used the design when making their own? Two German companies used the design in the mid 80s, Telefunken & the lesser known Saba both had their own versions.
Quality and finish was a lot better on the German versions than the Japanese one, they looked more business like especially the Telefunken with the briefcase carrier-Saba just used the JVC plastic one but smoothed out.
Both of the German ones work perfectly,the Saba having the instructions in German unsurprisingly. 8)
PS and I know the carry handles are the wrong way around! :lol:
