1"-inch Type-C video tape reel

1-inch Type-C was introduced by Ampex and Sony in 1976 and conforms to an industry consensus video standard.  1-inch Type-C is a high-quality analog composite open reel video format.  It largely replaced 2-inch Quad video tape due to the simpler and smaller machine and easier operation.  1-inch Type-C is one of the last open reel video formats.  1-inch Type-C was used in video production and television broadcast for many years and is comparable to Betacam and MII.  It was replaced by DVCAM, D2, and DVCPro.
