Yes, cost would be the reason why only a B&W camera was available in 1975. The camera was about a US$400 option then. I remember in late 1980, Sony offered the remaining cameras at a bargain price to their dealers and I tried to have my boss get me one, for something like $100 wholesale, but they were already gone. When small color cameras became available a few years later with the first portable VHS VCRs, they started in the US$1000 range.
