JVC is now shipping the 1/3-inch 3-CCD GY-HD100E digital camcorder across Europe. Interchangeable lenses, ergonomic design, SD and progressive HDV images are the cmacorder's major selling points.

ProHD products can be used in combination with existing equipment and accessories, facilitating a seamless link between the current SD formats and the HD formats of the future. The JVC GY-HD100E should be ideal for users who want to phase in HD production and ProHD is today's most affordable and most adaptable HD solution. The ability to record on Mini-DV tape has enabled this revolution to take place.

The GY-HD100E is provided with a standard detachable 16x servo Fujinon lens and is equipped with a standard 1/3-inch bayonet lens mount, enabling you to work with a wide variety of professional lenses. As a professional system, ProHD products naturally include timecode reading and writing ability.

The menu operation makes it easy to present time code at the beginning of a tape. A range of film accessories is now available with the camcorder including lenses, stabilisers, light controls and battery adapters.

The camera uses the 720p HDV format where it can capture and record progressive high definition and standard definition images with full resolution. If necessary, these 720p (1280x720 pixels) images can be converted into interlaced format (1080i) without degradation, which is ideal for HDTV displays and DT-V monitors.

Capturing and recording data at the film frame rate of 24fps, the GY-HD100E offers extensive user customisation of settings like exposure, gamma, and detail. The 24fps recordings can then be transferred onto 16mm or 35 mm film if needed.
