JVC GR-D395 MiniDV Camcorder
NEW JVC MINI DV CAMCORDER LINE OFFERS UPGRADED PERFORMANCE AND HANDLING
Selected models offer 32X optical zoom and built-in tele-conversion lens.
LAS VEGAS, January 5, 2006 – A new five-model JVC MiniDV camcorder line made its debut today, offering advancements in performance and handling.
The new line is distinguished by several new features, including selected models with a 32X optical zoom, 16:9 modes and a built-in tele-conversion lens. JVC’s new MiniDV camcorders are easier to use than ever thanks to a new Auto button – just press the button to switch between manual and automatic operation. And all models feature a new on-screen menu system that sorts menu layers by category, making operation easier.
For 2006, JVC offers four models with a 680K-pixel CCD. In addition, there is a 1.33-megapixel model, the GR-D650, that features a built-in 1.3X tele-conversion lens and JVC’s Low Light Plus – combining an F1.2 lens with the company’s 3D noise reduction that reduces visible video noise by approximately 30 percent and delivers superior low light performance.
