I really have no info on this since everyone keeps asking only about the film cameras and which dates. But like was bucharest digital or was it beta? Most of them could be beta but I'm not sure about the one right in front of the stage, looks A LOT bigger than the others

I'm not sure about Bucharest specifically, but Nocturne would use either Umatic or Beta. They only started using digital in 1997, for the Munich shows.
 
I don't think digital cameras were good enough in the 90s to be used on such an event 🤔
 
I think Betacam SP
A friend of mine at that time were camera operator for a TV Channel back then, each time he was showing me new camera's technology
Beta digital were introduced in 1993, well All formats are DVD like quality
Some of the Tokyo concerts were supposed to be shot on film, all concerts? some songs? partially? not sure

I'm no camera expert, but this sounds about right. They wouldn't have had anything digital that was good enough in 1992.

Also, if you're recording a whole show, you're not going to be changing technology between songs. That would waste too much time. Plus, the cameraman probably doesn't even know any of the songs.
