Power switch, Edit PLAY/PAUSE | JVC GR-AX710, GR-AX510 specification

NOTES:

● When using a Remote PAUSE terminal, pressing EDIT on the camcorder in step 5 automatically engages the VCR’s Record mode.

● When using a Remote PAUSE terminal, you can access a function called Master Edit Control System. Before beginning, reset the camcorder’s counter to “0:00:00” at an edit-out point. When the tape reaches this point (remember there’s a small margin of error) during editing, the camcorder and VCR pause automatically. However, some VCRs are not compatible with the Master Edit Control System.

Random Assemble Editing [R.A.Edit]

Create edited videos easily using your camcorder as the source player. You can select up to 8 “cuts” for automatic editing, in any order you like. R.A.Edit is more easily performed when the optional RM-V700U MBR (Multi-Brand Remote) is set to operate with your brand of VCR (see chart at left), but can also be performed by operating the VCR manually.

Both models are part of JVC's compact camcorder lineup, offering a blend of portability, performance, and user-friendly operation.

One of the standout features of the GR-AX710 is its advanced image stabilization technology, which significantly reduces camera shake and ensures smooth, steady recording.

They come equipped with a user-friendly LCD screen and a convenient viewfinder, offering flexible viewing options for both framing and playback. With intuitive controls, users can quickly navigate through settings and menus, making them accessible for users of all experience levels.

In terms of video quality, both camcorders record in the S-VHS-C format, allowing for higher-resolution video than standard VHS formats. This higher resolution translates to more detailed and vibrant recordings, making them suitable for home use and amateur filmmaking. The ability to play back recordings on standard VHS players adds to their convenience.

For audio, the JVC GR-AX710 and GR-AX510 feature built-in microphones and offer input options for external microphones, ensuring clear sound quality during recordings.
