JVC Multisystem VCRs.

First of all, what do you need, a  MULTISTANDARD VCR or a CONVERTER?  

A Multistandard VCR will play PAL/SECAM/NTSC tapes ONLY on a TV of the VHS tape standard you have, therefore requiring the purchase of a TV as well as a Multisystem VCR.
A Converter allows you to PLAY any standard tape on any standard TV and also, to convert the standard of the original tape allowing a copy to be made in a NEW TV standard. These are either combination VCR/Converters such as the Aiwa MX-100 (least expensive) and the Go Video GV-10W  (by far the best value) or Stand-Alone Converters like the Ten Lab TR -10SP. All of our converters are Digital and are TRUE Converters. We don't sell "transcodifiers" or analog converters and we strongly advise against them.
[Please don't be fooled by pseudo-converters! Ask for our FAQ file explaining the TRUTH about this before buying from anyone.]
This means you can watch any TV STANDARD VHS tape in the world (PAL/SECAM/NTSC) on any TV in the world, whether PAL, SECAM or NTSC TV or make an actual copy of any standard tape to any other standard, literally altering the electronic information and send it to a friend for him to watch on his own local TV.
If you plan on opening a STANDARDS CONVERSION business you'll need a Converter (and 1 or 2 VCRs). The best quality we sell are the TR-10SP by TENLAB, GO VIDEO GV 10W, SAMSUNG SV 4000W, and the PANASONIC AG-W2. With the TR-10SP "box" you'll need 2 VCRs, one in each of the standards (or MULTISTANDARD-s) you'll be using.  For more info about converters please go to our converters page. For NTSC only VCRs (the USA system), please visit our domestic electronics page where you will find JVC VCRs, TVs, Camcorders and other products geared specifically for the US market.

All camcorders (PAL and NTSC) we sell are Auto-Voltage/Auto-Hertz (90-260 Volts, 50-60 Hertz),
no switching or transformer needed.
