JVC ProHD — Defining the future of professional video

With the introduction of JVC’s ProHD, the promise of digital technology has finally been fulfilled. Equipped with robust professional features, yet surprisingly affordable and remarkably compact, ProHD embraces the HDV format to deliver a complete high-definition solution that has been designed to meet the needs of today’s most demanding professionals, while retaining the ability to adapt to future requirements.

Since 1996, JVC has continued to develop and diversify its digital video offerings in response to the rapidly changing environment of visual communications and production. JVC continues to evolve its digital cameras and recorders with ground-breaking features and varied storage options, including full-size DV tape and Hard Disk Drives.

Now with the production and delivery of video content shifting to high definition, JVC has combined its expertise in camera, encoding and storage technologies to create an advanced yet affordable HD solution. JVC’s ProHD system, adopting the HDV720P format, utilizes widely available nonproprietary technologies such as MPEG-2 compression,

DV recording media and conventional hard disk drives. Based on input from industry principals and leading end users, JVC has developed

a system with the most sought-after professional features and performance.

Noteworthy ProHD features include full HD progressive image scanning, true 24p frame capture, and a dual

recording system using tape & HDD. As ProHD evolves, JVC will continue to pursue the optimal method of storage media for our professional video products.

The latest addition to

the ProHD system is the GY-HD250, a compact studio-capable shoulder camcorder featuring full-frame 60p recording for smooth, continuous images.

Designed and built for professionals, ProHD is the fulfillment of the digital promise, offering true high definition performance in

a compact, affordable system.
