Aspects of

Top of the range ENG camera featuring live
uncompressed 1080i and live uncompressed 720p are menu
selectable as the HD SDI output, which is also
carrying embedded audio and timecode. The DC power
requirement is 12V which can be supplied either via
the built-in V-plate battery mount or via AC adapter
and the 4 pin XLR connector.
The JVC GY-HD251E camera offers real HD 24fps
recording. ProHD progressive 24 frame per second
recording makes it possible to shoot images with
smooth motion and film like qualities. Once recorded,
images can easily be transferred without frame rate
conversion to 16mm or 35mm film.
The JVC GY-GD251E ProHD camera has the capability
of recording a full 60 frames of HDTV per second. 60p
provides smooth motion, with each frame carrying the
full HD resolution. This makes the camera ideal for
live events, news, sports and other applications where
the 'live-look' is preferred over the film-look images
achieved with lower frame rates. cinematographers can
use the 60p mode as a means of delivering an 'overcranked'
slow motion effect when the 60p material is played
back and edited at 24p and 25p.
