JVC Professional Video will showcase its ProHD and 4KCAM camera lines, along with its latest Blu-ray/hard disc drive combo deck and an assortment of professional field and studio monitors, at Content and Communications World, which runs from 11 to 12 November 2015 in New York City.

The GY-LS300 4KCAM Super 35 handheld camera offers a new JVC Log gamma setting that expands dynamic range by 800 percent with film-like latitude, as well as Cinema 4K (4096x2180) and Cinema 2K (2048x1080) recording modes for digital cinema presentations. Available exclusively in the GY-LS300, Variable Scan Mapping technology adapts the camera s Super 35 CMOS sensor to provide native support of MFT, PL, and EF mount lenses, among many others. The technology also drives the new Prime Zoom feature, which allows shooters using fixed-focal (prime) lenses to zoom in and out without losing resolution or depth of field using the camera s hand grip zoom rocker.

JVC will also demonstrate a new slow motion mode, which records HD footage at up to 120 frames per second, for its GY-HM200 and GY-HM170 4KCAM cameras. The new feature will be available for both cameras via a free firmware upgrade in December. All three 4KCAM camcorders now include a histogram to verify the brightness distribution of an image, as well as a 70 Mbps recording mode for recording 4K footage in smaller, more manageable files onto affordable SDXC Class-10 U1 media cards.

Built for and standardised by broadcasters, the GY-HM890 and GY-HM850 ProHD camcorders include an interchangeable Fujinon wide angle 20x zoom lens, and feature three CMOS sensors with 12-bit readout, F11 sensitivity (60Hz), and excellent signal-to-noise ratio. A built-in HD streaming engine with wifi and 4G LTE connectivity allows live HD transmission directly from either camera to hardware decoders, Ustream, Wowza Streaming Engine, and the ProHD Broadcaster server powered by Zixi.

Both 800 Series cameras include genlock and time code terminals for multi-camera setups, HD/SD-SDI out, HDMI out, 3.5mm stereo headphone jack, and a four- channel audio system with stereo AUX inputs and two XLR mic/line inputs with phantom power. The GY-HM890 also includes an HD/SD-SDI Pool Feed input that can record and stream video and audio from another camera or SDI source during press conferences or other pool feed environments. Beyond ENG, the GY-HM890 is a versatile studio or multi-camera field production camera, with a 68-pin connection that accommodates JVC fibre or multi-core camera modules without the need of firmware upgrades.

Between our ProHD and 4KCAM product lines, we have an extensive collection of cameras to meet the needs of every video professional, said Dave Walton, assistant vice president, marketing communications. Several models include built- in HD streaming for broadcasting live reports from the field or webcasting live to Ustream and YouTube. From ENG to full 4K production, JVC cameras offer incredible imagery and native file recording for streamlined post-production workflows.
