Anyone have any recommendation (or want to sell a used) betcam Deck. I need a recorder (not just a player)....

I would recommend a Sony UVW-1800 Beta SP deck. I have one and find it to be very reliable. Even now when most of what I do is HD...I still find a need to either ingest some SD material from SP tape or need to send off an SD copy of a project somewhere. The 1800 is definitely bare-bones. Simply a player/recorder. I do wish it had SDI in and out like my Beta SX deck has... but for the price it is a great deck. Check eBay...I see 1800's for sale there all the time and bargain basement prices.

The Sony UVW-1800 is a great deck, for sure.
