It's funny, VHS never looked as bad as that filter.  I guess my tapes were in good condition.,(reply>), Digital 8 were kinda cooler when you talk about quality or gliches,(reply>), @jowys There's definitely a lot more that goes into it besides muted colors. There's also the blurred picture which I think has a huge impact on the effect. And then there's also the artificial sharpening that gives the edges some thick halos around them. A subtle VHS filter stands out just as well. The only difference is, people think a subtle one was actually recorded on a VHS camera.,(reply>), @gamephreak5 it wouldn't stand out much as a filter otherwise, it'd just be muted colors which you'd only need color correction for,(reply>), my old VHS also don't look like that,(reply>), I have used VHSes in amazing condition
