| With the introduction of JVC’s ProHD, the promise
of digital technology has finally been fulfilled. Surprisingly
affordable, impressively professional, and remarkably compact,
ProHD delivers a complete high-definition solution that’s
built to meet the needs of today’s most demanding
professionals, while retaining the ability to adapt to meet
the changing requirements of the future.
Since the launch of D9 in 1996 and Professional DV in
1999, JVC has continued to develop and diversify its digital
video offerings in response to the rapidly changing visual
communication and production environment. In 2004, for
instance, JVC released affordable HD encoding and decoding
products that have made possible efficient delivery of
HD programs to millions of television viewers. JVC has
continued to evolve its digital cameras and recorders
with advanced features and storage options, including
full-size DV tape and HDD media.
Now with the television landscape moving to HD content
production and delivery, JVC has combined its expertise
in camera, encoding and storage technologies to create
an affordable HD solution. JVC’s ProHD system, adopting
the HDV format, utilizes widely available non-proprietary
technologies such as MPEG-2 compression, DV recording
media and conventional hard disk drives. Based on input
from leading end users, JVC has developed a system with
the most sought after professional features and performance.
Noteworthy ProHD features include full HD progressive
scanning, real 24p, and a hybrid tape/disk recording system.
And in the future, new capabilities will be added including
4-channel audio, 1080i hard disk recording and optical
and solid state media.
Designed and built for professionals, ProHD is the true fulfillment of the digital promise, offering true high-definition performance in a compact, affordable system.
Now, JVC is proud to introduce our first two ProHD products:
the GY-HD100 compact shoulder camcorder and the BR-HD50
recorder/player. |
