No lex the Betamax by sony was smaller then a standard VHS and that picture the other one is way bigger then a standard VHS.

My guess it is what the pro's use at the TV stations etc.

I have but have not used in many years a Sony Elcaset Player but it did not catch on and it got where I could not find the tapes for it.

Mine was just like this here.

Some may have the very same player because they made it also for the standard audio cassette.

Sure was a great tape player.

Bit unfair really. Although these tapes can be used to store any data, the one in the photo's is used for this
There's more info on it here
I laughed out loud when I saw this thing sat on the desk at work.

Now that you have the tape you have to keep a lookout on Ebay for a plane to use it in.
