4K Ultra HD Camcorder for the Pro On-the-Go
y
The GY-HM180 was built to deliver stunning, life-like 4K Ultra HD (3840x2160) video. JVC’s 4K CMOS sensor with 12.4M pixels delivers high sensitivity and excellent performance over a wide range of lighting conditions.
Details are crisp and accurate throughout the entire image plane.
12x Optical Zoom and Seamless 24x Dynamic Zoom
y
The ultra high quality imagery begins with a precision 12x F1.2–3.5 optical zoom lens (35mm equivalent: 29.6–355mm). When shooting in the HD mode, Dynamic Zoom combines optical
zoom and pixel mapping from a 4K image sensor to create seamless and lossless 24x zoom.
This allows the camera to have a long zoom range while retaining its compact form factor.

Live Output
Working with 4K has never been easier. Insert an SDHC or SDXC
(UHS-I Speed class 3) memory card and record hours of 4K/UHD (3840x2160) material. Recordings are made using the Quicktime
(.MOV) file format and are compatible with many popular editing systems. Connect a 4K/UHD monitor with a single HDMI cable, and view the camera's live 4K signal. You can also play back recorded
files directly from the camera. A 70Mbps recording mode is also
available to record 4K footage on economical Class 10 SDHC/SDXC
memory cards.

High-Speed Recording for Slow Motion Playback
Also available is high-speed recording* at up to 120fps (59.94Hz)/ 100fps (50Hz) for smooth slow motion playback (up to 1/5 slow at
24p mode). It helps create artistic
effects and lets you watch replays to
examine sporting skills.
*Available in 1920x1080 resolution only
Full HD 4:2:2 Recording at 50Mbps
y
The ability to record H.264 4:2:2 24-60p at 50Mbps makes the GY-HM180 an ideal camera for broadcasting and production houses
alike. The color accuracy of 4:2:2 enables the GY-HM180 to deliver exceptional color resolution even when images are in sharp contrast to the background. This is particularly useful when strong colors are
in contrast to bright backgrounds, or in green screen usage.
Manual Control Rings and User Assignable Buttons
y
Take total control of the scene with dual large rings for zoom and focus, and IRIS dial for smooth shooting. What’s more, functions you want can be allocated to 9 buttons and 4 cursor levers, so settings can be changed
smoothly during recording, making professional operation really easy.
Heavy-duty Handle Unit with Various Controls
y
The detachable heavy-duty handle makes the GY-HM180 easy to carr y — and also makes it simple to shoot from low angles, thanks to its built­in REC button with lock function, and zoom lever. XLR audio inputs are provided for the attachment of a professional microphone or for LINE input, complete with Phantom power supply capability.

Fully Customizable Settings and Full Auto Simplicity
y
For more advanced visual expressions, detailed image settings
such as gamma and color shade can be customized. All of the customized settings are stored in the camera unit or SD card, and
can be called up whenever necessary. If speed is your maximum concern, you can always go with Full Auto operation or engage
Auto partially for certain functions. Reliable shooting is assured
even in Auto mode.
XLR Input (2ch)
Dual SDHC/SDXC Card Slots for Maximum Versatility
y
Dual SDHC/SDXC card slots make the GY-HM180 a truly versatile camcorder, offering such benefits as series recording, dual recording, and backup recording modes using reliable and cost-effective media.
• Series (relay) recording mode:
• Dual (simultaneous) recording mode:
format for backup or multi-purpose.
• Backup recording mode:
used to REC and STOP recording on one card, the other
card can act as a continuous backup that overrides the
pause function.* This is a unique mode highly demanded
by theatrical and bridal camera crews.
*During simultaneous backup recording in HD mode, the duplicate file records in the same file format and bit rate as the original.
