It became the most widely used format for home video recording and playback, and it was also used for some professional applications such as news gathering and corporate video. A VHS cassette is a large, rectangular cassette that is used to store analog video data. It consists of a plastic case with a single spool of tape inside. The tape is made of a thin plastic film coated with a magnetic material, which allows it to be magnetized and used to store video data. One of the main advantages of VHS tapes is their widespread availability and low cost. VHS tapes were widely used for home movies and amateur video production, and they could be purchased at most electronics stores and other retail outlets.
1982: VHS-C is a type of analog video recording format that was introduced in the 1980s as a smaller, more portable alternative to the full-size VHS format.

A VHS-C cassette is a smaller version of the VHS cassette, which was used to store analog video data. It consists of a plastic case with a single spool of tape inside. The tape is made of a thin plastic film coated with a magnetic material, which allows it to be magnetized and used to store video data.

One of the main advantages of VHS-C tapes is their portability. They are smaller and lighter than full-size VHS tapes, making them more convenient to carry and store. They are also relatively inexpensive, making them accessible to a wide range of consumers.
1975: Betamax is a type of analog video recording format that was introduced by Sony in 1975 as a competitor to the VHS format. It was commonly used for home movies and amateur video production, as well as some professional applications such as news gathering and corporate video.

A Betamax cassette is a large, rectangular cassette that is used to store analog video data. It consists of a plastic case with a single spool of tape inside. The tape is made of a thin plastic film coated with a magnetic material, which allows it to be magnetized and used to store video data.

One of the main advantages of Betamax tapes is their high video quality. They are capable of recording video in standard definition (SD) resolution, and the tapes are relatively durable and have a long lifespan. Betamax tapes also have a relatively low cost, making them accessible to a wide range of consumers. However, Betamax tapes have some limitatio
1990: MiniDV (Digital Video) is a type of digital video recording format that was introduced in the late 1990s as a replacement for analog video formats such as VHS and Hi8.

One of the main advantages of MiniDV tapes is their high video quality. They are capable of recording video in standard definition (SD) or high definition (HD) resolution, depending on the capabilities of the camera and the tape. MiniDV tapes also have a relatively low cost and are relatively durable, making them a popular choice for home movies and amateur video production.
1960: An audio cassette is a type of magnetic tape used for storing audio recordings. It consists of a plastic case with two spools of tape inside. The tape is made of a thin plastic film coated with iron oxide, which allows it to be magnetized and used to store audio data.

Audio cassettes were introduced in the 1960s and became a popular format for music and spoken word recordings. They were widely used for home and portable audio applications, such as in cassette players, boomboxes, and car stereos.

1980: Hi8 is a type of analog video recording format that was introduced in the 1980s as an improvement over the existing 8mm video format. It was commonly used for home movies and amateur video production, as well as for some professional applications such as news gathering and corporate video.

Hi8 tapes were widely used for home movies and amateur video production until the late 1990s, when they were gradually replaced by digital video formats such as MiniDV and DVD. However, they are still used by some photographers and videographers who appreciate the aesthetic qualities of analog video.

1923: 16mm film is a motion picture film format that was introduced in 1923 as an inexpensive alternative to the more expensive 35mm film format. It was commonly used for educational and industrial films, as well as some low-budget feature films and documentaries.

1930: 8mm film is a motion picture film format that was introduced in the 1930s as an inexpensive alternative to the more expensive 16mm and 35mm film formats. It was commonly used for home movies and amateur films, as well as some low-budget feature films and documentaries.

8mm film is a small gauge film, meaning it has a narrower width than 16mm or 35mm film. It is typically shot at a frame rate of 18 or 24 frames per second and has a frame size of 3.81mm x 2.44mm. The film stock is perforated along one edge with sprocket holes that engage with a sprocket wheel in the camera and projector to advance the film through the gate.

1950-70:  Reel-to-reel is a type of magnetic tape audio recording technology that uses a spool of continuous tape wound on a pair of reels. The tape is guided over a playback head, a record head, and various other electronic components, including erase, amplifiers, and equalization circuits.

Reel-to-reel audio recording was popular from the 1950s through the 1970s, and was used for a wide range of applications including music recording, sound effects for film and television, and voice recording for radio broadcasting. It was also used in professional recording studios and in home studios by hobbyists.

1935: For 35 mm slide film, it’s been in existence for more than 85 years. That’s right, two years after The Great Depression the 35 mm slide was invented in 1935 (a fitting name for a fitting year). As a result, it became the new standard for image projection, especially within the education system.

1935: Photographic film is a strip or sheet of transparent film base coated on one side with a gelatin emulsion containing microscopically small light-sensitive silver halide crystals. The sizes and other characteristics of the crystals determine the sensitivity, contrast, and resolution of the film.

 The first partially successful photograph of a camera image was made in approximately 1816 by Nicéphore Niépce, using a very small camera of his own making and a piece of paper coated with silver chloride, which darkened where it was exposed to light.
