For More Accurate Editing

Some VCRs make the transition from Record-Pause to Record mode faster than others. Even if you begin editing for the camcorder and the VCR at exactly the same time, you may lose scenes you wanted, or find that you have recorded scenes you did not want. For a cleanly edited tape, confirm and adjust the timing of the camcorder against your VCR.

DIAGNOSING VCR/CAMCORDER TIMING

1 Play back the tape in the camcorder, then point the remote control at the camcorder’s remote sensor and press R.A.EDIT ON/OFF.

The Random Assemble Editing Menu appears.

2 Perform Random Assemble Editing on Pro- gramme 1 only. In order to check VCR and camcorder timing, select the beginning of a scene transition as your Edit-In point.

R.A.EDIT

ON/OFF

3 Play back the dubbed scene.

If any images from the scene prior to the transition you chose for your Edit-In point were recorded, that means your VCR moves too quickly from Record- Pause to Record mode.

If the scene you tried to dub starts in progress, the VCR is slow to start recording.

ADJUSTMENT OF VCR/CAMCORDER TIMING

4 Point the remote control at the camcorder’s remote sensor and press R.A.EDIT ON/OFF to make the Random Assemble Editing menu disappear, then press the MENU/BRIGHT wheel in. The Menu Screen appears.

5 Rotate the MENU/BRIGHT wheel to select

VIDEO” and press it. The VIDEO Menu appears. Then, rotate it to “SYNCHRO” and press it. The value for “SYNCHRO” is highlighted.

6 Based on the diagnostics performed, you can now advance the VCR’s record timing by rotating the MENU/BRIGHT wheel towards “+”. You can also delay the VCR’s record timing by rotating the MENU/ BRIGHT wheel towards ”. The adjustment range is from –1.3 to +1.3 seconds, in 0.1-second increments. Press the MENU/BRIGHT wheel in to finish the setting.

7 Rotate the MENU/BRIGHT wheel to select “ RETURN” and press it twice.

Now perform Random Assemble Editing beginning with step 4 on page 60.

NOTES:

Before performing actual Random Assemble Editing, do a few Random Assemble Editing trial runs to check whether the value you have input is appropriate or not, and make adjustments accordingly.

Depending on the recorder, there may be situations where the timing difference cannot be fully corrected.

GR-DVL160, GR-DVL767, GR-DVL367, DVL367, GR-DVL365 specifications

The JVC GR-DVL365, DVL367, GR-DVL367, GR-DVL767, and GR-DVL160 represent a series of high-quality camcorders that cater to videography enthusiasts and casual users alike. With their compact designs and user-friendly features, these models have garnered attention for their exceptional performance and versatility.

One of the standout features across these models is the incorporation of the MiniDV format, which offers superior video quality with high resolution and low compression. This ensures that users can capture videos that are sharp and vibrant, making them perfect for everything from family events to professional projects.

The GR-DVL365 and GR-DVL367, in particular, are equipped with a powerful 800,000-pixel sensor that delivers clear images and videos even in moderate lighting conditions.

These sensors contribute to the overall image quality, making these camcorders suitable for capturing memorable moments in stunning clarity.

Another impressive feature is the 10x optical zoom lens found in many of these models.

The user interface of these camcorders is designed to be intuitive. Most models feature a color LCD screen that not only provides a clear view of the subject but also allows users to navigate the various settings and options effortlessly. Additionally, the built-in image stabilization technology helps reduce the effects of handheld camera shake, resulting in smoother videos.

For those interested in editing their footage, the ability to output video through IEEE 1394 (FireWire) is a significant advantage. This makes transferring video to a computer for editing straightforward and efficient, enhancing the overall filmmaking experience.

Moreover, the GR-DVL365 and GR-DVL367 come equipped with several shooting modes, including night mode and digital effects, allowing users more creativity in their filming. The GR-DVL160, while simpler, still offers essential features that make it a reliable option for everyday use.
