I used one of those in high school to tape presentations at a student run "symposium" The batteries didn't long at all, so a power outlet needed to be near at all times. The tiny reels of tape didn't last too long either. And it got heavy real fast.

Sometimes I wonder what things would have been like if I followed that path. It was something I enjoyed doing. I ran cameras for sporting and theater events for several years, but all the low end sony products.
In college you had to be on a communications track to play with cameras and that wasn't my thing so, nope. But if it really had been....

Was this the one that appeared in the Sears catalog? I remember wanting one, but they were rather expensive and what would I have done with it?

In the end I just joined the photography club, and I did theatre lighting, in high school. In first year Uni I was bored in my off time and wanted to do some kind of volunteer work and found the local community cable tv station (Calgary Cable North!) was looking for volunteers. I learned about how TV lighting is different from theatre lighting, then took on the cameras, both studio and "portable". I continued on doing the same in Toronto for Rogers Community TV, right up to the time they pretty much cancelled the whole thing in about 1996 (fired all the old producers and scaled back productions to the bare minimum required by the CRTC), and then finally closed it down completely in 2017 (after "new CRTC regulations allowed companies that co-own broadcast stations and cable providers in a metropolitan market to divert the mandatory funding for community channels to support local news operations for their broadcast stations").
