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, pg. 64) is set to operate with your brand of VCR (see VCR CODE LIST), but can also be performed by operating the VCR manually.

Before operation, make sure the lithium battery is installed in the remote control RM-V700U (pg. 64).

GR-AXM900 specifications

The JVC GR-AXM900 is a noteworthy camcorder that emerged in the early 1990s, embodying the evolution of home video recording technology during that era. This compact and lightweight camcorder is designed for amateur videographers, offering a range of features that cater to a variety of filming needs.

One of the standout features of the GR-AXM900 is its 680,000-pixel CCD sensor, which provides a clear and vibrant image quality for its time. This sensor enables users to capture video in 4:3 aspect ratio, making it suitable for traditional television viewing. The camcorder also supports S-VHS recording, which delivers higher quality video compared to standard VHS formats. This capability is ideal for users looking to create videos with improved resolution and color depth.

The GR-AXM900 boasts a powerful zoom lens, featuring a 10x optical zoom that allows users to focus on subjects from a distance without sacrificing image quality. Additionally, it offers a 700x digital zoom, enabling even greater magnification when needed, making it a versatile tool for capturing a range of scenes, from close-ups to distant landscapes.

User convenience is enhanced by the camcorder’s sophisticated autofocus system. The autofocus feature helps ensure that subjects are sharp and in focus, which is especially useful for novice filmmakers who may be learning the ins and outs of manual focusing. The camera also includes several shooting modes, allowing users to easily switch between standard recording and various special effects.

Another notable characteristic of the JVC GR-AXM900 is its capability to record audio with built-in stereo microphones, providing a richer sound quality that complements the video footage. Furthermore, the camcorder comes equipped with a color viewfinder and a flip-out LCD screen, giving users a clear view of their subject while recording.

The design of the GR-AXM900 is user-friendly, with controls positioned for easy access, allowing for smooth operation during shooting. It is powered by rechargeable batteries, contributing to its portability and ease of use for extended filming sessions.

In summary, the JVC GR-AXM900 was a significant advancement in consumer camcorder technology, providing impressive features for capturing high-quality video. Its combination of S-VHS recording, versatile zoom capabilities, autofocus, and user-friendly design make it a memorable choice for amateur filmmakers of its time.
