The highest quality ULTRA mode records at a constant bit rate of 8.88 Mbps with AC 3 audio*1— comparable to the DVD (average 4 Mbps video/9.8 Mbps maximum) data rate — for essentially DVD quality with the same video and audio format as a movie DVD. And the 2.12 Megapixel CCD*2offers the high-resolution capabilities needed for high-end digital videography.

The roughly half-an-ounce (16 grams) matchbook-sized 1" Microdrive®is compatible with a wide variety of devices that accept CompactFlash+ Type II and PC Card Type II media. With JVC initially offering 4GB Microdrives, the boom in the most popular portable audio players, digital cameras and need for portable storage are driving Microdrive®manufacturers toward even higher capacity and lower cost.

Multiple Advanced Interfaces
Store what you’ve shot on the provided Microdrive®card* or optional CompactFlash** or SD Memory Cards. Microdrive®is a hard disk drive that’s the same size as a CompactFlash card, but with many Gigabytes of capacity. You can eject it, as you would a CompactFlash or SD Memory Card, and load data into your PC via an optional card adapter. Also simply connect the camera via its USB2.0 interface for quick downloading to a PC. All transfer is digital-to-digital, so you won’t lose any quality in the process.
PictBridge and Digital Print Order Format for easy printing
Just connect the USB terminal and print stills directly from the camera to a PictBridge compatible printer. The camera directly creates Digital Print Order Format (DPOF) information for selection and quantity of images to print, rotation, as well as index printing, and user and picture title information, for when you take your media to a printing service.
