Sony SLV-N50 VHS VCR

Features Easy Set Up Feature: This feature guides you through first time set up; to activate the easy set up feature, all you need to do is press a single button on the front of the VCR. 19 Micron Video Heads: For better picture quality from EP tapes. APC Adaptive Picture Control: This feature tests each tape and adjusts both playback and record parameters for best picture. Reality Regenerator Function: This may be turned on or off. This function operates automatically when turned on to "restore" the picture to its original quality during playback. This enhancement sharpens the edges of an image while minimizing video noise unlike a regular sharpness control does. Note that this is a fairly subtle enhancement and how noticeable it is depends on the quality of the tape you are watching. This function works with all VHS tapes, even if they were not recorded on a unit with this function. VCR Plus+ Gold, VCR+ with channel setup, and Smart Channel Mapping: This VCR can automatically set the guide channels in your area by entering your Zip/Postal Code during Easy Setup. This keeps you from having to manually map which station corresponds to VCR+ codes in your area. If no station is broadcasting the required signal in your area you can also set it manually. Note that if you have various cable systems in your area, the VCR will ask you to select which one you use. Station ID: You can select a TV program using the station's ID. Favorite Channel: A list of 10 channels can be cataloged as Favorite Channels. You create your favorite channel list using the Station IDs. Advanced Quickset Timer Dial with Station ID: The rotary dial on the VCR allows you to easily program recordings within the next month without having to turn on the television. You simply rotate the knob for recording start and stop times (in 15 minute intervals), select the channel, and press the knob to complete the setting.
