Concept of JVC's
Affordable HD Solution
1. HDV Full Progressive Scanning (720p)
Leading industry professionals told us that they wanted a fullframe progressive scanning system that would shoot and record the highest quality continuous moving images. ProHD uses the 720/60p progressive HDV format and produces crisp, native HD images which perfectly match today’s digital displays and which can be converted easily, without degradation, to interlaced scanning pictures.
2. Time Code
As a professional system, ProHD products include the facility to record and display timecode. Convenient menu operation makes it easy to preset time code at the beginning of a tape. Simply select REC RUN or re-generation mode. User bits are also available.
3. Highly efficient video compression
To provide the highest quality HD recording, JVC uses the broadcast industry standard MPEG-2 Main Profile at H-14. Offering far greater efficiency than frame-bound systems, ProHD records at data rates at or above commercial broadcast rates. Recent advancements in non-linear editing have made it possible to edit ProHD on virtually all popular non-linear editing systems. Direct digital transfers via IEEE 1394 ensure the quality is maintained throughout the transfer process.
4. Dual recording system
Designed to utilize both DV tape and hard disk drives, ProHD offers the ultimate in media versatility, maximizing productivity with efficient, economical editing and low-cost archiving. Now you can safely archive the original tape cassette and then plug the hard disk straight into your NLE. Editing can start right away — no need to make dubs or transfer data.
5. Real 24p
With ProHD, the dream of creating HD video with the essence of film has at last been realized. By capturing and recording at the film frame rate of 24fps, and offering extensive user configurable settings such as exposure, gamma and detail, ProHD becomes an important tool for creative expression. For the ultimate form of display on the cinema screen, 24 frame progressive recordings can be readily transferred
to 16 mm or 35 mm film. The optional HZ-CA13U Film Lens Adapter further empowers digital filmmakers by enabling the use of 16mm film
lenses with a PL mount.
