Jvc GZHD5 Everio GZ-HD5 3CCD 60GB Hard Disk Drive High Definition Camcorder Details:

JVC Everio GZ-HD5 3CCD 60GB Hard Disk Drive High Definition Camcorder with 10x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom offers industry-leading picture quality in a dramatically reduced size. The GZ-HD5 HD camcorder is 45 percent smaller than JVC’s previous top-end HD camcorder, the GZ-HD7, without any sacrifice in image quality. To provide the best possible quality, the 60GB GZ-HD5 HD camcorder features a Fujinon HD lens, a progressive scan 3CCD imaging system and JVC’s HD Gigabrid engine that delivers 1920 x 1080 full HD recording.

Description:

JVCs GZ-HD5 60GB HD Everio Camcorder brings together full high definition recording, a progressive scan signal and compact design in one amazing internal memory camera. Forget about carrying extra tapes or discs around because with 60GB of storage youll be able to shoot all day and then some before needing more space. The impressive 1920 x 1080 progressive scan signal of the Gigabrid Engine provides the maximum image information for your shots, resulting in high quality images each and every time. And, the camcorder takes up very little room in a bag or purse, making it perfect for use when traveling or for family events.

Another impressive aspect of the GZ-HD5 is the accessory shoe and mic input; these features allow you to add a light or microphone to obtain professional-quality recordings. This camera also boasts a roomy 2.8" Widescreen Clear LCD that fights glare and ghosting when recording in bright conditions, an SDHC card slot for capturing extra SP video and 1920 x 1080 stills, and a wide range of manual controls such as focus and exposure settings. Power-Linked Operation prevents wasting battery power by automatically turning the camera off when the LCD closes while the Data Battery function lets you check remaining battery power and time. These features and more are all reasons why JVCs GZ-HD5 is one impressive machine.

Features:

• Full 1920 x 1080 HD Video
Record in full 1920 x 1080i HD video, from start to finish, with the GZ-HD5. Every part of the process from the lens, to the CCD image sensor, the MPEG2 transport stream and output either via HDMI or USB2.0 is in full HD without any loss of quality.

• HD Gigabrid Engine
Specifically designed for JVC, the HD Gigabrid Engine processes the images you record as a 1920 x 1080 progressive scan signal, no matter what mode was used, providing the most visual information possible. In addition, five digital noise reduction technologies work together to improve the vertical resolution of the image by approximately 30%.

• 60GB Internal Hard Disk Drive
The GZ-HD5 frees you up from having to carry around extra tapes and discs. Record your video or stills directly to the 60GB internal memory and access or delete any scene in an instant.

• Compact Design
The compact design of the GZ-HD5 makes it perfect for use on long trips or at family events. When youre not using the camera just pop it in a bag and forget about it until youre ready to record.

• FUJINON HD Professional Optical Zoom Lens
The FUJINON HD Professional Optical Zoom Lens was made specifically for high definition use. With three aspherical elements the lens maintains consistent brightness throughout the zoom range. Also, the electronic beam coating (EBC) on the lens surface reduces degradation by preventing flaring and ghosting of your image.

• Three 1/5" Progressive Scan CCDs
Three 1/5" Progressive Scan CCDs allow the camera one sensor each for the primary colors of red, green and blue. By utilizing three sensors the GZ-HD5 is able to take in the most information for each color, resulting in true-to-life color reproduction.

• Optical Image Stabilization
Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) corrects for the age old problem of handshake and body sway. Even if you dont have the steadiest grip on the camera the OIS will stabilize the image without any loss in quality.

• Built-In Sliding Lens Cover
The days of losing your lens cover are over! The built-in cover automatically opens when you turn the camera on and closes when you turn it off.

• 2.8" Widescreen Clear LCD
The roomy 2.8" LCD uses a 16:9 aspect ratio, allowing you to shoot and playback images in cinematic widescreen. The Clear LCD reduces surface glare and reflections allowing for clear viewing when youre recording outdoors even on bright days.

• SDHC Card Slot
Use SDHC cards (sold separately) to record extra video or still images. A 4GB card will hold up to 25 minutes of 1440 x 1080i video and up to 6880 1920 x 1080 stills.

• Manual Focus Ring
The manual focus ring gives you the ability to compose and frame the shot yourself. The focus assist function helps you along by outlining in-focus areas in color.

• Zebra Function
Highlighted areas are covered with a striped pattern, making it easy for you to manually set exposure.

• Program AE
Program AE provides you with a wide variety of effects to use while youre shooting, freeing you up from having to worry about exposure or focus and allowing you to enjoy the moment.

• Stick Control
This 4way, one-finger control allows the camera operator to access many of the GZ-HD5s functions. The compass points on the circular control operates everything from the selection of menu items to manual camera settings.

• Manual Controls
Several manual control functions are available on the GZ-HD5 including, manual white balance, exposure control, sharpness control, shutter priority, aperture priority and brightness control.

• Accessory Shoe & Mic Input
Use the accessory shoe to attach external lights or microphones to the camcorder for professional results. The featured mic input terminal provides power to a mounted microphone.

• Power Link Operation
Power Link Operation saves battery power by automatically turning the camera off when the LCD screen closes. In turn when you open the LCD the camera will automatically come back on.

• Data Battery
JVCs Data Battery system lets you check remaining battery power (for JVC batteries only) in percentage and recording time in minutes, with the camera on or off.

Tip: Have you ever returned from a trip thinking you had taken some great shots? But, upon review of your prints you were disappointed to discover that some of them, especially those shot indoors or at night or in other dark places, came out blurry, looking like someone was shaking the camera when you took the picture? That is a very common problem called “Camera Shake” and every year it destroys millions of photos that could have been wonderful. “Camera Shake” is caused when there isn’t enough light for the camera to set a fast shutter speed. Your camera’s shutter opens and has to stay open for up to several seconds for enough light to hit the film to make an image. The problem: most people cannot hold a camera perfectly still for more than a small fraction of a second. The blurry image you see is caused by the camera moving while the shutter is open, and it happens to everyone. To avoid “Camera Shake” and get a clear sharp picture in low light, the camera must be attached to something so it will not move at all. That is where a tripod comes in. Mount the camera to the tripod and it will not move. Also, use the camera’s self-timer or a cable release so that you are not touching the camera when the picture is taken. Do this, and you will eliminate “Camera Shake” and get the great clear pictures you were expecting.
