Totally Professional Compact Shoulder Camcorder with Full Progressive HD and Real 24p Specs
Featuring a 1/3" bayonet mount, the JVC GY-HD110U 3-CCD HDV/DV camcorder is compatible with a wide selection of interchangeable HD lenses. With its compact shoulder design, comprehensive professional features, and excellent portability, the GY-HD110U is today's most affordable HD image gathering solution.Professional Specifications
HDV/DV compatible
As the HDV format uses the same recording track pitch as Professional DV, the GY-HD110U can record signals in either standard or high definition depending on the user's needs.Real 24p camcorder
The GY-HD110U is a professional high-definition camcorder featuring real HD 24p capture and recording capability -- previously only available on the most expensive HD cameras. With HD progressive 24 recording, you can shoot images with film-like quality and smooth motion performance that are ideal for DVD production.Interchangeable HD lenses
The GY-HD110U features a standard professional 1/3" bayonet lens mount that allows you to use other professional HD lenses. By using the optional adapter, popular 1/2" lenses can be used.1/3" 3-CCD camera system with 720p HD CCDs
The GY-HD110U uses three newly developed 1/3" HD-CCD image sensors, each one featuring an array of 1280 x 720 pixels, with micro lenses. Since the camera's native resolution matches that of most HDTV displays, the need for image scaling is eliminated, further enhancing the quality of the recorded images. Other advantages of these CCDs include sophisticated circuitry that virtually eliminates lag and image burn.Uncompressed 720/60p signal output
In addition to providing superior quality HD recording in the 24p format, the GY-HD110U can output an analog component 720p HD signal at 60 frames per second that's ideal for live broadcasting. With a third-party HDSDI converter, you can stream the uncompressed full-resolution signal to an array of systems.
Two XLR audio inputs
Two XLR connectors allow you to record high-quality digital audio. Independent controls are provided for each channel.Professional functions
Compact shoulder mount
The first fully professional HD camcorder to feature a shoulder-type mount with a compact body, the GR-HD100 offers excellent mobility and enhanced usability. The exclusive shoulder-type mount assures ease of handling for anyone, regardless of physical strength.Smooth motion function (JVC-patented)
JVC's exclusive smooth motion function captures images at double the normal rate when shooting in 30p or 25p (that is, at 60p or 50p). When the two images are merged, they are passed through a newly developed filter that smoothes out the subject's motion by retaining a small percentage of residual image. This eliminates the motion judder that typically appear in images shot at 30p or 25p. The smooth motion function can be enabled in the 24p mode if desired.Professional functions and switch layout
In addition to the Full Auto Shooting to handle difficult or variable lighting environments, the GY-HD110U is equipped with an array of pro-level functions that provide professionals with the creative flexibility they need, including zebra, gain, white balance, shutter, etc. The GY-HD110U's switches have also been arranged in the way that most professionals are accustomed to, making operation more intuitive, precise, easy, and error-free. Since you won't have to "relearn" how to use this camcorder all over again, the GY-HD110U is the ideal camera for any assignment.
Full Auto Shooting
In an emergency, or when it's not possible to pause to adjust white balance or change the gain, the Full Auto Shooting mode provides point-and-shoot ease of operation, leaving you simply to zoom, focus, and press the record button. Activating Full Auto Shooting puts the camera into the Auto Iris mode, even if the lens is set to manual. Automatic Video Level Control (ALC) is also activated, along with Extended Electronic Iris (EEI) which provides both variable gain and variable shutter and Full Auto White to follow color temperature changes. This means you can shoot continuously from dark to bright, from indoors to outdoors, without changing gain, iris, white balance or ND filter.Color matrix
A sophisticated six-axis color matrix circuit effectively compensates optics-related color reproduction to ensure more natural, true-tolife tones. Several color matrix presets are provided to give you more creative control over the look and feel of your images.Detachable 230,000-pixel LCD viewfinder
The viewfinder can be moved forwards or backwards and can be adjusted for left or right eye shooting, so it is comfortable for any operator. Peaking is optimized to make focusing easy at all times.Tri-mode 3.5-inch LCD display
The 250,000-pixel 3.5" color TFT LCD monitor provides a highresolution image during shooting or playback. Its peaking adjust function allows quick, effortless focusing. A push button selects three display modes.- Video only
- Video images with text information overlay including time, status, mode, and other data are shown on the screen.
- Data information only including time, status, mode, and other data are shown on the screen.
Various audio-related functions
When color bars are output, an audio reference level (test tone) can also be output if desired. You can specify this via the menu, as well as set the audio reference level to -12 dB or - 20 dB as required. To minimize extraneous noise picked up by the microphone, a "wind cut" function is provided.Versatility and flexibility
Real-time playback capability
With real-time playback capability in all major DTV formats, the GY-HD110U makes it easy to convert recorded data to other formats without compromising the level of quality.Easy transfer to 16 mm or 35 mm film
Especially designed to facilitate transfer to 16 mm or 35 mm film, the GY-HD110U enables recordings to be transferred with full HD fidelity, without frame rate conversion.Camera settings recorded on SD card
Customized settings can be stored on a standard SD memory card and loaded into another GY-HD110U or changed on site as required.IEEE 1394 interface
A convenient IEEE 1394 bus interface lets you easily connect the camcorder to NLE systems or a PC for easy downloading, editing or archiving.User-Friendly Design
Universal ergonomic design
Adapts to fit anybody comfortably with shoulder pad that can be moved back and forth, left-eye viewfinder, and up/down adjustable headphones.Patented "FOCUS ASSIST" function
This function colorizes detail edges in the viewfinder to facilitate focusing in high definition. This makes it much easier to perform the fine focusing adjustment required for accurate HD focusing.Variety of optional lenses
In addition to a standard detachable 16x servo Fujinon lens, a wide range of options are available, including a 13x (3.5 mm) wide zoom lens, a wide angle converter for the standard 16x lens, and an adapter that allows standard 1/2" lenses to be used on the camera. Third party adapters are available that allow prime lenses to be used in place of the supplied lens.DC input
A DC input is located on the side of the battery holder, so battery can be replaced with new one without turning the camera off by using a DC adapter.Connect to an external HDD
