I'd like to see these VCRs models either added to, or specifically excluded from, the above list. What we'll need, however, is the reviews of owners -- those who have a decent grasp of VCR tech, and can compare performance between several models.

List of models...
  • Panasonic NV-FS90 EG PAL S-VHS VCR
  • Panasonic NV-HS860 PAL S-VHS VCR
  • Panasonic NV-HS930 PAL S-VHS VCR
  • Panasonic NV-HS960 PAL S-VHS VCR
  • Panasonic NV-HS1000 PAL S-VHS VCR
  • Panasonic NV-SJ210 PAL VHS VCR (no TBC, not SVHS)
  • Toshiba SV-771C (TBC? no TBC?)

Will update this list as I notice more models discussed online, which do not appear in our current list.

If you can provide some insight or input onto any of the models of VCRs discussed anywhere on this page, or even to discuss some new models NOT mentioned here, please do so!

Thanks.

And then this Panasonic VCR information may good to integrate into either the VCR recommendations list, or the associated Service Manuals / User Manuals threads, as this list (I believe) compares transports and/or internals:

Panasonic S-VHS PAL G2 decks:
  • Panasonic NV-FS100
  • Panasonic NV-FS100B
  • Panasonic NV-FS1B
  • Panasonic NV-FS200
  • Panasonic NV-FS88
  • Panasonic NV-FS90
  • Panasonic NV-FS90B
  • Panasonic NV-FS95
Panasonic S-VHS PAL K decks / K-Mech:
  • Panasonic NV-HD100B/EB
  • Panasonic NV-HD610, NV-HD605
  • Panasonic NV-HD620
  • Panasonic NV-HD625
  • Panasonic NV-HD630 NV-HD628
  • Panasonic NV-HD650
  • Panasonic NV-HD650
  • Panasonic NV-HD700
  • Panasonic NV-HD90
  • Panasonic NV-HD90B
  • Panasonic NV-HS1000B/EC
  • Panasonic NV-HS800B/EC
  • Panasonic NV-HS900
  • Panasonic NV-HD660 K-MECH
  • Panasonic NV-HS1000 K-MECH
  • Panasonic NV-HS800 K-MECH
  • Panasonic NV-HS900 K-MECH
Panasonic S-VHS PAL Z-decks:
  • Panasonic NV-HD680 Z deck
  • Panasonic NV-HS850EG/B/EC Z deck
Listed, but unmarked on source list:
  • Panasonic NV-HS950
  • Panasonic NV-HS200
... and it would be interesting to see how these compare to the ones already found on the "suggested models" list at the top of this page. I will say this: It's going to be very hard to displace the FS-NV200 (PAL AG-1980P) as the best Panasonic model. And then displacing JVC is a bit of challenge, too, as JVC VCRs give cleaner quality video output.
