Abstract

A video camera deck driving apparatus and a control method thereof are disclosed. In the video camera deck driving apparatus, the deck of the video camera comprises a main deck and a sub-deck in a separate form, and a drum installed on the main deck perpendicularly, wherein a tape guide member and other components are improved to be suitable to the perpendicular drum and the sub-deck slides over the main deck in such a manner that the drum and the cassette can be closely approached to each other, thereby reducing the size of the deck.
