My dad bought a video camera in 1983. The camera was a relatively small size for the time, but it had to connect to the VCR itself, which was carried in an awesome space-age looking silver shoulder bag. To watch videos, you’d reconnect the VCR to the its separate tuner component, which stayed attached to the TV. Everyone was completely amazed. This thing was awesome, even if hauling the VCR around was a pain. It had to have weighed ten pounds easy.
