Portland on Tape - PDX Terminal

Ever since its expansive upgrades, Portland International Airport's gargantuan size has added a kind of blissful liminal space quality to it that I can't get enough of; I hope you enjoy its beauty, too! Filmed in Portland, Oregon on November 6, 2025. Standard Definition (SD) video is only 16% the resolution of High Definition (HD), and a microscopic 4% the resolution of 4K. Captured on analog cassette tapes, the long-discontinued VHS format was the dominant form of home media entertainment in the '80s and '90s. I grew up watching my favorite movies on VHS, and Portland is just the city for that analog feel. I know I'm right at home with the dreamy look of magnetic tape. **EQUIPMENT:** **Camera:** Panasonic PV-L780D VHS-C Analog Camcorder **Lens:** Panasonic 26x Optical Zoom 3.8-98.8mm **Format:** VHS-C tapes (Sony VHS-C Premium Cassette - 30 minutes) **Stabilization:** Handheld **Audio:** Internal Twin Capsule 2-Way Microphone **Frame Rate (Capture, Ingest, Edit, Export):** 60i, 60p,
