Brand: Sony

The Sony TC-138SD is a videocassette recorder (VCR) that was introduced by Sony in the mid-1980s. It was part of Sony's popular Betamax line of VCRs and was known for its high-quality video playback and recording capabilities. The TC-138SD is also notable for being one of the first VCRs to include a built-in wireless remote control. This allowed users to operate the VCR from the comfort of their couch, without the need for a physical remote control connected to the machine. This feature was quickly adopted by other VCR manufacturers and has since become a standard feature on most modern electronics.
