The ultra-sensitive camera (F13 at 2000 lx) assures effortless shooting
in extreme low light situations. This powerful feature increases creative
flexibility and simplifies lighting requirements. The camera head has
extra-high effective resolution of 800 TVL.
Newly-developed 12-bit ADC* and 12-bit DSP**
processing brings out all the natural details, eliminates noise,
providing rich, accurate color reproduction previously found only in
the most expensive field production cameras.

LOLUX 0.4 lx (F1.4)
When activated, the LOLUX mode increases sensitivity with almost no
increase in noise. LOLUX increases the gain by +36 dB so you can
capture high-quality video footage with excellent color balance,
enhanced gradations, and minimal color smear in low-light conditions.
Various audio-related functions
When color bars are output, audio reference level (test tone) is also
output. The audio reference level can be set to -12 dB or -20 dB as
required. In addition, a "wind cut" function is provided to minimize
extraneous noise picked up by the microphone.
Versatile, user-friendly design
Optional 1.5-inch CRT black & white viewfinder
The viewfinder can be moved forwards or backwards and the viewing
angle can be adjusted, so it is easy to keep your subject in frame.
The peak value is changed to make focusing easy at all times.
On-shoulder type with soft shoulder pad
For smooth, stable shooting, the
GY-DV5000 has been designed for onshoulder shooting and comes with a soft
shoulder pad attached.
External light trigger function
When you use the Anton Bauer QR-JVC-AUTO battery holder, you can
link the ON/OFF switching of a connected light to the recording trigger.
Attaching the IDX NH202 dual battery holder to the GY-DV5000, also
allows you to link ON/OFF light switching to the recording trigger. If
you want the light on all the time, you can use the switch.
Time/date recording
Time and date with seconds resolution can be recorded on the tape over
color bars or video. Time and date are also overlaid over the video output.
Black stretch/black compress
You can use this function to enhance or compress reproduction of
black areas on the screen. When stretched, the contrast of highcontrast images is reduced so that you can capture both highlights
and shadows. With 0.45 gamma, you can shoot with ambient lighting
only (no fill light required), allowing you to obtain better detail
reproduction in bright or shadowed areas. When compressed, the
contrast is increased, making colors richer.
In addition to the Full Auto Shooting to
handle difficult or variable lighting
environments, the GY-DV5000 is equipped
with an array of pro-level functions that
provide professionals with the creative
flexibility they need.
These include soft detail correction, Skin Tone Detection, fully
adjustable gamma, Iris over/under Black Stretch/Compress, Frame
Mode, etc. The GY-DV5000'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
"re-learn" how to use this camcorder all over again, the GY-DV5000 is
the ideal camera for any assignment.

BR-DV6000
BR-DV6000U (NTSC) DV Recorder with Editing Function
BR-DV6000E (PAL) DV Recorder with Editing Function
Designed specifically to function within a non-linear editing system, the BR-DV6000 is an ideal
spooler and flexible, easy-to-use editing machine with a variety of interfaces. Compact design,
long-time recording ability and a wide range of options including network board, make the BRDV6000 the right choice for professional studio needs.
System flexibility with various interfaces
Y/C, composite and component input/outputs
In addition to DV input/output, this BR-DV6000 DV VTR is equipped with Y/C,
composite and component input/outputs, allowing it to be used in combination with
video sources of virtually any format. The BR-DV6000 can serve as digital/analog
interface for legacy analog devices like an S-VHS or Betacam recorder.
NTSC/P AL playback capability
Both NTSC and PAL signals can be played back. This makes it easy to work with
internationally sourced material and transfer it to a non-linear editing system for
editing. When signals are input via the DV input, both types of signal can be
recorded to Standard or Mini DV tape in either NTSC or PAL system.
*Cannot be used as an NTSC/PAL converter.
BR-DV6000U: Signals input via the analog input cannot be recorded in PAL format.
BR-DV6000E: Signals input via the analog input cannot be recorded in NTSC format.
RS-422A interface
As the BR-DV6000 is equipped with an industry-standard RS-422A interface, DV
source material can be transferred to a variety of formats for editing.
JVC bus interface
Compatible with the RM-G800 remote controller for JVC's popular S-VHS editdesk series, this interface allows analog signals to be transferred from this VTR to
the S-VHS VCR for editing or dubbing.
Optional RS-232C interface (SA-K46U)
Use this interface to connect directly to a PC for computer-controlled operation.
Optional professional-standard XLR balanced audio
boards
High-performance XLR balanced audio connectors are optionally available to
ensure professional-standard audio reception and transmission quality. Either the
input or output board can be used. Both boards cannot be used simultaneously.
DVCAM playback capability
DVCAM recordings can be played back directly on the
BR-DV6000. This makes it easy to use DVCAM recordings as source material for
editing.
Various editing functions
Insert/assemble editing
The BR-DV6000 is equipped with basic editing functions such as
audio/video insert and assemble editing. Video signals and/or
audio signals (CH1 and CH2) can be assembled or inserted. A
capstan bump function is also provided for frame editing with
enhanced quality.
Audio dubbing (with 12-bit, 32 kHz audio)
Audio dubbing is available with any configuration and allows you
to add a new soundtrack (such as narrative or music) to the CH3
and CH4 audio channels without affecting either the original video
track or the existing 32 kHz CH1 and CH2 audio tracks.
SMPTE/EBU time code generator
The built-in SMPTE/EBU-standard LTC time code generator
provides a full range of time codes including preset (rec run and
free run) and regene time codes. Time codes are recorded frame
by frame for optimum editing accuracy.
Application
Simplified digital editing system
Using two BR-DV6000s and the RM-G820 remote controller,
digital editing system can be set up.
