Tape recorder for Hitachi camera?

Question

I have an old Hitachi Camera, model VM-E325LE. Is there any place where I could buy tape recorder for it? I haven't been able to find anything on google or ebay so far.

Answer 1

old cameras that have a multi pin connector are not easily adapted. the power for the camera has to be supplied through the connector, which also passes the video and mono audio. very few CCD consumer cameras used the multi pin so most likely it is a single tube type which has very poor resolution, although it might be adequate for Beta or VHS.  if you are insistant in making it work again, you need to find the portable recorder that was the original companion.
