The JVC GY-HD200U and the 250U are shoulder style camcorders that looks just like big professional broadcast cameras, only a bit smaller, which, hdv 1080i camcorder

I first used the JVC GY-HD200U when working on a reality show in 2008 and I was amazed when I saw the footage on my HDTV set, the picture was flawless with rich colors and a very good depth of field for a HDV camcorder.

Because the camcorder is so long with most of the weight in the back and front being distributed across it makes for a very comfortable shooting, hdv 1080i camcorder

The JVC HD200U/250U Builds on the success of the previous JVC GY-HD110U and adds a super encoder capable of 1080i 60P output. Both, hdv 1080i camcorder

The 1/3-inch bayonet mount makes this camcorder capable of adding other third party lenses from Fujinon, Canon etc.

The JVC GY-HD200U is practically the same camcorder as the JVC GY-HD250U, but the latter can be transformed into a studio camera when you add a KA-HD250 Studio Kit. The 250U also adds genlock capabilities, time code sync, and HD-SDI output. Both camcorders can record in both NTSC or PAL formats at various interlaced and progressive frame rates which makes this camera very compatible for all sorts of productions and also for traveling.

The JVC GY-HD250U and 200U records high-definition video on regular MiniDV cassettes, but with the optional DR-HD100U Direct-to-Edit recorder, a hard disk workflow can be achieved, while simultaneously creating back-up material on digital tape.
