DELIVERD WITH COVER AND 6 BATTERIES

POWER SUPPLY IS MISSINGThe NAGRA VPR-5 is a remarkable piece of engineering, one can be see in The Metropolitan Museum of Modern Art,  New York. It is a video portable tape recorder using 1” magnetic tape in C format. VPR 5 development plans were introduced to professionals at the 1982 IBC convention at Brighton.  However its production only begins in 1984. Sony Betacam format using cassettes with ½” tape (more practical)  was announced one year before and VPR 5 market suffers with this and with its high price of US$ 45,000. AMPEX, a professional video recorder maker with high quality tradition, made some improvements in initial NAGRA design and VPR 5  was marketed as AMPEX NAGRA VPR – 5.
