In the first German video test magazine, the SONY SL-8000E lost to the Panasonic NV-8600E (LQ VHS), the PHILIPS VCR N 1700 (LVC) and the GRUNDIG SVR 4004 EL (SVR) in the IMAGE SHARPNESS category.
@@crashbandicoot4everr Around 1980, Hitachi brought a VHS recorder onto the market, and the service manual states that the horizontal resolution is 240 lines in color (LQ VHS) and 300 lines in b/w (HQ VHS). But I have also seen TV recordings from 1980 where the 3 MHz lines can be seen in the test pattern at the end of the transmission.
I have the NV-8600 & SL-8000 amongst my extensive collection. The Panasonic is sharp but the Sony is more natural looking. Panasonic did make the best VHS video recorders at the time but Beta was the better format.
I can quite believe that too but I have to say I was really impressed by the picture on the SL8000 - it's the first time I've ever used one! Still have another to look at too.

I have an NV-8600-EM. The picture quality is suprisingly great considering it's a 1st gen VHS deck.
